@@@ Education is a key thing that we are doing right now, said Barry. The public needs to know how Ebola is spread and not spread. We receive many questions from people concerned about being in close proximity with people who are well and not ill.
The Ebola virus is spread through direct contact with an infected person s blood or other bodily fluids while he is contagious. To be contagious, a person has to be experiencing symptoms of Ebola such as a fever, headaches, diarrhea, or abdominal pains.
Barry said the virus Bostonians should be worried about isn t Ebola.
Frankly, people are more at risk for influenza, and it s time for everybody to get their flu vaccine, she said.
Here is according to the CDC:
- High risk: suspected cases are those who have had a needle stick, been exposed to the mucous membrane or other bodily fluids of a confirmed Ebola patient without personal protective equipment. Someone who has had direct skin contact with a person who is contagious, or with a contagious person s remains, without protective equipment would also be classified as high risk.
- Low risk: suspected cases have either been in the same home as a confirmed Ebola patient or they have had close contact with a patient in health care facilities. Walking by an infected person or moving through a hospital, according to the CDC, does not qualify as close contact. People sitting next to you on an airplane who are not actively sick are not likely to give you Ebola, Barry said.
- No risk: suspected cases have likely been to an area where the Ebola outbreak occurred within the past 21 days but had no exposure.Related Articles:
