Ebola: Male Survivors To Abstain From S3x

 

The men who survived the Ebola Virus in Nigeria have been advised not to have s3x for at least 7 weeks.

Dr Bridget Okoeguale, Director, Department of Public Health, gave the advice during an interview with News Agency of Nigeria (NAN). She said:

 

“There are many literatures that say that after men are infected, when the virus is not found in the blood, it tends to stay in the semen for about seven weeks to three months. 

“What we did according to the WHO protocol is that we made sure that when the men are discharged they are given enough condoms, if they cannot abstain for that period. 

“We advise them to abstain from s3x but where they cannot abstain, they are provided condoms and after the (abstinence) period, we double test to make sure they are free’’, 

'“ We are not advising people not to go to club or bar but if you have to just remember that you must keep your hands clean, avoid contact with as many people as possible."
