Ebola is deadly but stopping it from spreading is much easier than with COVID. Do not panic! 1. Ebola is only passed on by contact with body fluids of an infected person- sweat, vomit, blood etc. Not just being in close contact. 2. Ebola is only transmissible when someone has developed symptoms. If someone is infected but has no symptoms they cannot pass it to you. Therefore all we have to do is be vigilant and avoid anyone who has a fever and other Ebola like symptoms - vomiting, bleeding, diarrhea, headache or other malaria like symptoms. However as a precaution simply avoid all body contact with other people like shaking hands, hugging and keeping your distance in crowded places, public transport or large gatherings.

Pain in the calf muscle (the muscle on the back of the lower leg) can sometimes be caused by a clot. If you ever get shortness of breath after getting calf pain it could be a clot that has moved to the lungs (pulmonary embolism) which often kills. Never take calf pain lightly especially if you are sedentary, travel a lot or are immobile due to injury or sickness. Clots can be treated and death prevented if you seek care in a timely manner. But, it starts with being able to identify a potential problem. Share this to save more lives
