The CDC, WHO, and OSDH all offer fairly extensive information on their websites about how to prevent Ebola in the U.S. but most information given is in particular to those people who are in or traveling to countries with outbreaks currently in progress or health care workers who are around infected places and people.  The majority of the information offered is almost identical between the three websites preventive pages.  All website say the signs and symptoms of Ebola include the following.  A person that is infected may experience a fever, headache, muscle pains, fatigue,  vomiting, hemorrhage, and any other symptoms that one may have with a common flu but more severe, and in worse case scenario, death.  All three websites suggests basic cleanliest such as washing hands and body extensively and regularly.  The CDC says to use alcohol based hand sanitation products in specific.(http://www.cdc.gov/vhf/ebola/prevention/index.html)  All three websites say to stay away from bats or other non human primate animals(particularly in Africa) All three website also say to stay away from  any hospitals in Africa treating Ebola patients if you happen to be in the continent.  All websites stress avoiding direct contact with dead bodies of people who have been infected with Ebola and also to stay away from funeral services and rituals were one may come in contact with a infected body.  The OSDH stresses that it is impossible to get Ebola from food or water from here in the United States.  (http://www.ok.gov/health/Disease,_Prevention,_Preparedness/Acute_Disease_Service/Disease_Information/Ebola_Hemorrhagic_Fever.html)  The OSDH actually sites the CDC's prevention page on their website under there prevention tips.  All three website also state that there is no USDA approved vaccine for the Ebola virus yet.  There is however multiple organizations and researchers working to provide one as it is in great need.  It is my opinion that all three website are fairly identical and informative but if I had to choose one I  would say the CDC's is the best.  This is probably the reason the OSDH actually includes a link to it in there website.
