A member of the World Health Organisation committee of experts on Ebola Virus Disease in West Africa, Prof. Victor Inem, has said ebola victims who recovered from the virus could still be re-infected if a fresh contact is made with carriers of the virus.
Therefore cautioned cured victims to avoid coming in contact with those already infected, avoid sex or wear condoms and also warned against embalmment and unnecessarily prolonged funeral services in parts of Nigeria where corpses were often touched or kissed over and over again.
