Insights into the Early Epidemic Spread of Ebola in Sierra Leone Provided by Viral Sequence Data

1 Jan 2014

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND AND METHODOLOGY: The current Ebola virus epidemic in West Africa has been spreading at least since December 2013. The first confirmed case of Ebola virus in Sierra Leone was identified on May 25. Based on viral genetic sequencing data from 72 individuals in Sierra Leone collected between the end of May and mid June, we utilize a range of phylodynamic methods to estimate the basic reproductive number...
