#Ebola can spread through sexual contact. The virus can remain in semen for upto 6 months after recovery, even when a person feels well.

Men who have recovered from Ebola should follow your health worker's guidance until the virus is no longer detectable.

Men are advised to:
1. Abstain from sex until cleared by the health worker
2. Use condoms consistently and correctly
