from an area that has the Ebola outbreak, to be quarantined for 21 days to help prevent the virus from spreading. The Ebola virus has killed a lot of people already and if people don’t does something about it fast then it could kill millions more. The symptoms of Ebola are very similar to the Flu which is fever, severe headache, muscle pain, weakness, fatigue, diarrhea, vomiting, and abdominal pain.
