A member asked:
Is it possible for a patient to battle the ebola virus in their body for more than three month, and still be alive moving around.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: We already knows it takes up to three weeks for symptoms to begin to present in patients. This can be longer. Once symptoms appear, based on patients immune status, overall health ,nutrition as well as available medical care they may survive for extended period of time before clearing the virus and getting better
