Ebola

Ebola virus disease is a severe, often fatal illness in humans. Ebola can cause severe bleeding, organ failure, and can lead to death. The virus is transmitted to people from wild animals and spreads in the human population through human-to-human transmission. The first Ebola outbreak occurred in Central Africa. This virus is treatable but no cure has been officially found. It is extremely contagious if not careful. Also it can spread by blood products like unclean needles or unscreened blood it can also be transmitted by saliva, even by touching contaminated things like a doorknob or blanket. Some symptoms of ebola are pain in entire body, gastrointestinal which is diarrhea,nausea, vomiting and more. Some extra symptoms are coughing up blood and mental confusion. Some medications are supportive care, medications, and specialist. The search still continues for a cure for this horrendous virus that has killed more than 6,000 people. Nearly 100 children in the United States were suspected of having Ebola last year, and although none of them actually had the deadly disease, these kids sometimes experienced delays in care because medical staff were concerned about being exposed to Ebola.
