Strains Differ?

Ebolas Zaire, Sudan, and Tai cause illness in humans as well as primates (monkeys). Ebola Reston does not cause illness in humans, but does cause illness in monkeys. Ebola Reston is suspected to be airborne (transmitted by the air) where the other strains are not transmitted by air. As for their structure, they are all quite similar in (string-like) shape, but have different gene sequences in places, and therefore different properties.

Please do NOT contact me and ask me to send you all of the information from this web site, or to ask me to help you with your term paper on Ebola - but if you are really nice and find my site useful and give me a donation since I pay for all of this myself, I’ll be really kind to you.
