Ebola Survivors Can Transmit Virus Through Sex |
2015-05-03 |
[Voice of America] U.S. health officials say Ebola survivors can spread the disease through unprotected sex many months after being declared free of the virus.
In a report Friday, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention detailed the case of a 44-year-old Liberian woman who is believed to have contracted Ebola through sexual intercourse with an Ebola survivor. The man developed the disease last September and was discharged a month later. The woman fell sick in March, a week after having sex with him, and died. |
