BRUSSELS, Belgium (AFP) — The risk of an Ebola outbreak in the European Union (EU) is “very low” and “there is no indication” that Europeans need to take further steps beyond the standard public health advice, a spokeswoman said Wednesday.
“We know that diseases do not stop at the borders, and this is also the case of Ebola,” spokeswoman Eva Hrncirova told reporters.
This was why the European Union was doing “everything” it could to support the central African region hit by the outbreak, she added.
