The Health Ministry has issued an advisory to churches in Kenya, warning of the risks of Ebola transmission and urging vigilance. The advisory highlights that Ebola is a serious and potentially fatal disease, spread through direct contact with the blood or body fluids of an infected person.
The ministry emphasized the importance of early reporting of suspected cases to prevent further spread. Health officials stressed that religious gatherings could pose a risk if proper hygiene and safety measures are not followed. The advisory was distributed to all religious institutions across the country.
This follows recent reports of increased cases in neighboring regions, prompting the ministry to take proactive measures. Officials have also called for community education on how to identify symptoms and respond appropriately. The advisory comes amid ongoing efforts to control the outbreak and reduce public health risks.
