Ebola virus outbreak in DRC

Ebola virus is spread through direct contact with the bodily fluids of an infected person and does not spread through casual contact or air. The latest Ebola outbreak in eastern Congo’s Ituri province is the 17th Ebola outbreak in the country since 1976. One of the worst outbreaks killed more than 11,000 people between 2014 and 2016. The World Health Organization this week declared the Ebola outbreak in Congo and Uganda a “public health emergency of international concern.” At least 80 suspected deaths have been reported. There were more than 300 suspected cases in Congo as of Sunday, and there have been eight laboratory-confirmed cases this year, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The CDC said it is supporting interagency partners “who are actively coordinating the safe withdrawal of a small number of Americans who are directly affected by this outbreak.” Do you think that he virus is manufactured and spread ?
