- Overview of Ebola Virus Disease
- Ebola is caused by a virus that can be spread through blood, bodily fluids, objects contaminated with bodily fluid, fruit bats, primates, or sexual contact. However, Ebola is not spread by the air or water. Symptoms of Ebola include fever, severe headache, muscle pain, weakness, fatigue, diarrhea, stomach pain, and hemorrhage. These symptoms may occur from 2 to 21 days after exposure to Ebola. If you are experiencing these symptoms, contact your physician or make an appointment at the Student Health Services here.
