Rumors of an Ebola outbreak at the Burning Man festival are false

Kelly Tyler Published September 4, 2023

Attendees at the Burning Man Festival in the Nevada desert in the US are tussling with effective mud problems following storms that flooded the event grounds. This has resulted in the closure of the only access road in and out of the festival.

Amidst the inflow of attendees heading to the Festival, social media has noticed a wave in rumors indicating the existence of an Ebola outbreak at the event. Different reports have appeared, with people sharing their experiences of being restricted to their RVs and facing limitations stopping entry into the Festival.

Meanwhile, some social media users have spread a screenshot of a CDC notice announcing the occurrence of an Ebola outbreak in Black Rock City, NV, where the Festival is taking place.

Beyond these tweets, there is no credible information confirming that the Burning Man Festival is a breeding ground for the Ebola virus.

Furthermore, after reviewing the official CDC website and Twitter account, no related tweets were found.

The initial limitations on access to the festival were mainly a response to the significant rainfall and constrained resources, rather than any purported virus-related situations.

In the last year, the festival encountered severe challenges, including a severe heatwave and powerful winds.

Burning Man, which was initiated in 1986 in San Francisco, aims to be an event that defies easy categorization, occupying a special space that combines elements of a countercultural celebration with elements of a spiritual pullout.
