<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:10.0pt;line-height:115%">The 2014 Ebola epidemic is the largest in history, affecting multiple countries in West Africa. Although the risk of an Ebola outbreak in the United States is very low, CDC and partners are
 taking precautions to prevent this from happening. Texas A&amp;M University &#8211; Commerce, the City of Commerce, Hunt County Emergency Management, Hunt Regional Healthcare agencies, and multiple other local agencies are monitoring the situation and coordinating situational
 updates together. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:10.0pt;line-height:115%">During outbreaks of Ebola, those at highest risk include healthcare workers and the family and friends of a person infected with Ebola. Diagnosing Ebola in a person who has been infected for
 only a few days is difficult because the early symptoms, such as fever, are not specific to Ebola infection and are seen often in patients with more commonly occurring diseases. Currently there are no specific vaccines or medicines (such as antiviral drug)
 that have been proven to be effective against Ebola.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:10.0pt;line-height:115%">A person infected with Ebola can&#8217;t spread the disease until symptoms appear. The time from exposure to when signs or symptoms of the disease appear (the incubation period) is 2 to 21 days, but
 the average time is 8 to 10 days. Signs of Ebola include fever (higher than 101.5°F) and symptoms like severe headache, muscle pain, vomiting, diarrhea, stomach pain, or unexplained bleeding or bruising.
