Must Read:See The signs and symptoms of Ebola disease And how to prevent it

The signs and symptoms of Ebola
disease And how to prevent it
So Sad it’s no longer news that
a Liberian man named Patrick Sawyer
has brought the deadly Ebola Virus into
Nigeria, Guys I must tell you that we are
looking at an epidemic. It was reported
that atleast 30 people who had contact
with the man in the hospital are now
being tested, but what of other people he
met on his way to the Nigeria/hospital
i.e taxi driver, pilot, air hostess, hotel
Attendant etc Then how many people did
these people have contact with? in
reality we are looking at over 3000
contacts.
Now we are dealing with something we
aren’t even adequately prepared to
handle. Medical facilities do not have the
hazard suits and do not know the
protocol for handling these cases. Its
sad.
But Early Detection Might just save A life,
here are some signs and symptoms of
Ebola disease . Make sure you Read And
Share this Post to your family members

Some patients may experience:

A Rash

Red Eyes

Hiccups

Cough

Sore throat

Chest pain

Difficulty breathing

Difficulty swallowing

Bleeding inside and outside of the
body

Symptoms may appear anywhere from 2
to 21 days after exposure to ebolavirus
though 8-10 days is most common.
Some who become sick with Ebola HF
are able to recover, while others do not.
The reasons behind this are not yet fully
understood. However, it is known that
patients who die usually have not
developed a significant immune response
to the virus at the time of death.
