Ebola outbreak reported in African country — here’s what you need to know



An Ebola outbreak has been reported in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, with at least a dozen cases and eight deaths in the Bolamba health zone. Experts are monitoring the situation closely, noting that the risk of widespread transmission is low but local impacts could be substantial. The U.S. is not at risk, as Ebola only spreads from symptomatic individuals. Symptoms of Ebola include fever, aches, pains, and fatigue, progressing to diarrhea, vomiting, and bleeding. Prevention involves avoiding bodily fluids of infected individuals, wearing protective gear, and monitoring for symptoms. FDA-approved medications are available for treatment. It’s important for the international community to provide support and vaccines to affected areas.
