What is the Ebola virus?

In addition to all the disasters that have taken place in this period of time, which have claimed lives in regiments in wars, sectarian conflicts, wildly suppressed revolutions and natural disasters, most of which have been hurricanes sweeping vast areas and killing hundreds, the Ebola virus began to spread for the first time, Human beings to kill them in record time Although it has been considered an epidemic since 1976, it is from then kills hundreds of lives annually, but this year began to kill hundreds per month. The Ebola virus is transmitted from animals to humans through blood transfusion. The two most important animals carrying the disease are monkeys and fruit bats. This is justified by the fact that the African continent is very popular. These peoples consider the bats as food and simply to cook a bat that is not good enough to transfer the virus from the animal to humans. , While blood transfusions or body fluids can be transported between humans. When the Ebola virus is detected in the body, the same diseases, such as malaria, cholera, and all diseases classified as viral hemorrhagic viruses, which are mostly fatal viruses, should be excluded.

In the absence of the virus itself in the body of the patient, the detection is done through the examination of the body does contain antibodies to the virus or not, or the examination of the RNA of the virus. One of the most important ways to prevent this virus is to keep as far away as possible from the infected animals and even to get rid of them by killing them and disposing of their bodies after checking the results of their examination or not to deal with them because they usually carry the virus and only transport blood transfusion. A vector of the virus should be well cooked except for protective clothing when handled, slaughtered with a preference not to eat it from the ground. Has not yet confirmed that the virus is spread through the air and therefore in the case of an oceanic person enough to deal with caution without exposure to fluids. For example, transferred males who have been cured of the disease through the semen after two months of recovery, so no woman should be reunited before the end of the recovery period completely.

The spread of Ebola is now concentrated in the countries of Africa, notably Sierra Leone, Guinea and Liberia, and its spreaders believe that it is very possible that it is in the process of being deployed in Nigeria.
