The Ebola virus is a zoonotic virus, which means that it can spread from animals to humans. Once a person is infected, the virus affects multiple organ systems in the body. Infected cells can attach themselves to blood vessels, causing uncontrollable internal bleeding in some patients, accompanied by high fever—a condition known as hemorrhagic fever. Other common symptoms include liver and kidney failure, vomiting, and diarrhea. On average, 50% of people that contract Ebola die from the disease, though the fatality rates of past outbreaks have varied from 25% to 90%. Scientists isolate virus RNA from blood samples and then convert the RNA to DNA. Using DNA sequencing, they then compare virus sequences isolated from individuals in different locations and at different times in an outbreak. By identifying differences in the viral genomes, scientists can reconstruct the history of how the virus spreads and mutates. Tracking mutations over time can also reveal whether the virus is…
