菲律宾卫生部确认，尽管刚果民主共和国爆发了本迪布焦埃博拉病毒疫情，但菲律宾国内目前尚无埃博拉病例。
卫生部向公众保证，菲律宾未受到当前埃博拉疫情的影响。发言人阿尔伯特·多明戈（Albert Domingo）表示，国内没有确诊病例，且由于没有直飞航班或本地传播途径，疫情风险依然较低。
此次疫情涉及刚果伊图里省的本迪布焦病毒株，该省为冲突地区，医疗资源匮乏。世界卫生组织已宣布该疫情构成国际关注的突发公共卫生事件。菲律宾曾于1989年、1992年、1996年和2008年在动物中发现雷斯顿埃博拉病毒，但未出现人类感染病例。
针对来自疫情受影响地区的旅客，当局将加强筛查，目前暂不建议实施旅行禁令。埃博拉病毒通过直接接触体液传播，而非空气传播。早期症状包括发烧、头痛和肌肉疼痛。
