Recently, rumors have been spreading on Chinese social media sites that Ebola is transforming its human victims into zombies. The stories became so prolific that China’s official new agency, Xinhua, published a special report that only ended up spreading more confusion.

Xinhua promised readers that, contrary to chatter on the Internet, Ebola is not a “zombie disease.” But the agency’s attempt to allay readers’ fears of reanimation actually isn’t particularly reassuring.

“An Ebola sufferer may lose consciousness or faint, making him or her appear dead,” Xinhua explains. “But a few hours or even days later the patient may suddenly come to and enter an extremely violent state, tearing at and biting anything that moves, including people and animals.”…

Xinhua’s article finally comforts readers by assuring them that Ebola is in fact extremely deadly. “The scariest thing about Ebola is the high death rate,” Xinhua concludes. “There have never been cases of Ebola sufferers becoming zombies and attacking people. That can only happen in movies.”
