Question:

Which of the following viruses is not transferred through semen of an infected male?

Ebola Virus

Chikungunya virus

Hepatitis B virus

Human immundodeficiency virus

Solution:

Ebola virus has been detected in blood and many body fluids. Body fluids include saliva, mucus, vomit, feces, sweat, tears, breast milk, urine, semen, and vaginal fluids. HIV is transmitted through blood, semen, breast milk and other body fluids. Hepatitis B is usually spread through blood, semen, or other body fluids from a person infected with the virus. Chikungunya is an infection caused by the chikungunya virus. It is a viral disease transmitted to humans by infected mosquitoes. Therefore, while Ebola, HIV, and Hepatitis B can be transmitted through semen, Chikungunya is not transmitted through semen.
