Variation around the dominant viral genome sequence contributes to viral load and outcome in patients with Ebola virus disease
7 Sept 2020
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Viral load is a major contributor to outcome in patients with Ebola virus disease (EVD), with high values leading to a fatal outcome. Evidence from the 2013-2016 Ebola virus (EBOV) outbreak indicated that different genotypes of the virus can have different phenotypes in patients. Additionally, due to the error-prone nature of viral RNA synthesis in an individual patient, the EBOV genome exists around...
