🚨 *EBOLA PREVENTION: 10 IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS TO SHARE* 🇳🇬
Following reports of a confirmed Ebola case in Abuja and 44 contacts being traced, let us remain calm, vigilant and informed.
✅ *1. Wash your hands regularly* with soap and running water, especially before eating and after using the toilet.
✅ *2. Avoid contact with bodily fluids* such as blood, vomit, saliva, urine and faeces from anyone suspected of having Ebola.
✅ *3. Know the warning signs:* fever, severe headache, weakness, muscle pain, vomiting, diarrhoea and unexplained bleeding.
✅ *4. Report suspected symptoms immediately.* If you have symptoms after possible exposure, call the NCDC on 6232 before visiting a hospital.
✅ *5. Cooperate with contact tracing.* Anyone identified as a contact should follow health officials’ instructions and complete the recommended 21-day monitoring period after their last exposure.
✅ *6. Avoid touching dead or sick wild animals,* particularly bats and non-human primates. Handle and cook meat safely.
✅ *7. Do not share items contaminated with bodily fluids,* including clothing, bedding, needles or personal-care items.

✅ *9. Avoid spreading rumours.* Share information only from credible sources such as the NCDC and the World Health Organization (WHO).
