Four studies found the virus in the semen of three men cured Failure to avoid not having sex, you are advised to use condoms The warning is supported by four studies that have investigated the persistence of Ebola virus in the seminal fluid of a total of 43 patients.

So far, WHO included in its recommendations to prevent the spread of viruses that people avoid sex for at least seven weeks after clinical recovery or to use condoms if they maintain relationships before that period expires.
“Because of the potential for transmission of the virus through sexual contact during this time, (convalescent) must have good personal hygiene after masturbation and abstain from sex (including oral sex) until three months after the last symptoms,” has wHO recommended, you added that you should use a condom if the latter is not possible.

WHO has clarified that nursing does not recommend that men and have tested negative in tests for the virus in the blood are kept in isolation. The Ebola virus is found in body fluids such as blood, vomit, feces, saliva, urine, tears and seminal and vaginal fluids. “Although the scientific evidence is limited, it is clear that semen is a potential source of infection and can cause HIV transmission,” he explained.
