Zaire Ebolavirus Background

The Zaire ebolavirus, is the most virulent species of the Ebola virus genus and is responsible for the majority of Ebola virus disease (EVD) outbreaks in humans. First identified in 1976 near the Ebola River in what is now the Democratic Republic of the Congo, it causes a severe hemorrhagic fever characterized by sudden onset of fever, fatigue, muscle pain, vomiting, diarrhea, and, in many cases, internal and external bleeding (WHO). The virus is transmitted through direct contact with the blood or bodily fluids of infected individuals or animals, and it has a high case fatality rate, sometimes exceeding 50% (CDC).
