Background: Ebola virus has been spreading in an unprecedented manner not only to neighboring countries in Africa but also to many other countries worldwide . Ebola Virus Disease is a severe, often fatal illness, with a death of up to 90%. There is no vaccine available in the market for this disease , so stress should be made on its knowledge , attitude and practice amongst medical staff. Also India has so far been spared from the EVD. However, the subcontinent is one of the native areas of the fruit bats that are reservoirs of the disease. Fruit bats from Bangladesh have been tested serologically positive. India being a highly populated country and lack of basic sanitary and health care facilities , India is at stake with immediate spread of the disease at a rate which would be worst than that in Africa. Aim: To assess knowledge and attitude regarding Ebola Virus Disease ( EVD) among medical students. Material and Methods: : Interventional study was conducted among medical students at Adesh Institute of Medical Sciences and Research, Bathinda. Predesigned questionnaire was introduced to the participants in English both pre intervention and post intervention. A total of 503 students participated in the study. Results: 95.4 % of medical students had heard about Ebola. 102 out of 503 students thought that soap, bleach, sunlight and drying do not play any role in preventing its transmission and 62.2 % of medical students knew that a Ebola virus disease could have death rate of up to 90% of the cases. Intervention in the form of workshop was given and significant changes were there in the post interventional questionnaire analysis.
