HOW DOES SOMEONE GET EBOLA?
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Ebola is spread:
- Through direct contact with the bodily fluids of someone who is sick with or who has died of Ebola. Bodily fluids include blood, saliva, urine, feces, sweat, semen, mucus, vomit, breast milk and other fluids.
- Through contact with objects that have been tainted with the Ebola virus, such as needles and medical supplies.
- By touching the blood or other fluids or the meat of tainted animals.
