Want to know more about Ebola? Then check this out

 The recent outbreak of the deadly Ebola virus in West Africa has raised some questions as to how South Africa will be able to detect if an infected passenger were to enter the country. While the risk is very low, there are still a number of facts that wouldn’t hurt to know about.

It might sound a bit grim, but according to the really helpful Ebolafacts.com, “about 90% of people that catch Ebola will die from it. It’s one of the deadliest diseases in the world, killing in a few weeks.”

The website has been designed to give you a better overview of exactly what the virus is, the symptoms that present itself, and how you can protect yourself from possible infection.

Out of interest, the symptoms generally take between two to 21 days to reveal itself, and are deceptively general – the symptoms are very much the same as the common flu or malaria. The website also points out that people aren’t contagious until they display symptoms.

So, if you want to find out more about Ebola, head on over to the aforementioned informative website to learn everything you need to know.
