Comments |
"Ebola virus (EBOV) and Marburg virus constitute
the two genera of the family Filoviridae. Marburg
virus is represented by a single species and EBOV
by five species (primary source). The natural reservoirs of filoviruses
are a number of different bat species and human
transmission is thought to occur via animal hosts
including primates." |
