MARBURG VIRUS TREATMENT

What are the transmission modes of Marburg virus disease, and how can it be prevented?

Marburg virus disease is transmitted through contact with infected animals, such as bats or monkeys, or through human-to-human transmission via bodily fluids. The disease can be prevented by avoiding contact with infected individuals or animals, wearing protective clothing and equipment, practicing good hygiene, and promoting community awareness.

During the 2005 outbreak of Marburg virus disease in Angola, a team of healthcare workers from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) worked tirelessly to help contain the disease. The team worked closely with local health officials, providing support for patient care, setting up isolation units, and implementing infection control measures. Despite the challenging conditions, their efforts were successful in containing the outbreak, and the team was commended for their bravery and dedication to public health.
