Misinformation can spread faster than disease. Understanding the facts about Ebola helps protect you, your family, and your community.
✅ Fact: Ebola is not the same disease as Hantavirus. While Hantavirus is mainly linked to rodent exposure, Ebola spreads through direct contact with the blood or bodily fluids of an infected person.
✅ Fact: There is no approved home remedy for Ebola. Early reporting, prompt medical care, and strict infection prevention measures are critical to reducing transmission and saving lives.
Stay informed. Verify information from trusted sources. Avoid self-medication and the spread of rumours.
