  1. Treatment for the Disease Currently there is no treatment for the Ebola virus. Doctors and researchers have to wear gloves, masks, and suits. People with Ebola need intravenous fluids ( which means within a vein, putting some kind of fluid into the vein to keep inflammation down) because they are constantly dehydrated. Any disposable tools the doctors use to treat Ebola is burned and the non-disposable tools are carefully sterilized.

  2. Prevention • The only prevention known right now is to stay away from it and take precautions if you plan to go to Africa and make sure you get your blood tested when you get back just to make sure.
