Rapid Qualitative Exposure and Release Assessment
2015Also available in:
Following the ongoing outbreaks of Ebola virus disease (EVD) in several African countries reported since March 2014, the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) prepared a rapid qualitative exposure and release assessment in order to evaluate the role of meat from wild animals and related activities linked to Zaire Ebola virus (EBOV) in human populations. The likelihood for human exposure to EBOV through close contact with wild species, hunting, handling and consumption of meat from different wild species as well as the likelihood of introduction and onward transmission of EBOV in non-infected countries through the consumption and trade of wild animal meat are assessed in this document. This rapid qualitative assessment is based upon information available up to 18 December 2014 and will be revised as circumstances change. The reader should note that the uncertainty in the assessment of the different levels of likelihood remains high since there is a need for a bet ter understanding of EBOV and related issues to provide a more precise assessment. The background information used to conduct this rapid qualitative risk assessment can be found in the Annex at the end of this document -
