India quarantines man over Ebola sex risk

(BBC) India has quarantined a man who was cured of Ebola in Liberia because of the possibility that he may spread the virus through sex.


The man tested negative for Ebola in standard checks when he arrived at Delhi airport.

However, officials said he was being quarantined because the virus was still present in his semen - and could be transmitted by the "sexual route".

Ebola has killed more than 5,000 people this year, mostly in West Africa.

Most of the cases in the latest outbreak - the deadliest ever - have been recorded in Liberia, Guinea and Sierra Leone.

Men who have been successfully treated for the disease are advised against having sex - or to make sure they use a condom - because their semen can still carry traces of the virus for up to 90 days after they have been cured.

I guess this would all depend on how often the 'supply' of the semen is 'removed' and replenished.

Good move.

India is the last place we want to see Ebola spreading.

1.1 Bn people in one country..... phew.

Quarantined indeed! So where are all the screamers protesting the violation of this man's human rights...
