Ecologic and Geographic Distribution of Filovirus Disease

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2004
We used ecologic niche modeling of outbreaks and sporadic cases of filovirus-associated hemorrhagic fever (HF) to provide a large-scale perspective on the geographic and ecologic distributions of Ebola and Marburg viruses.

Ebola viral hemorrhagic fever

Journal of Health Policy & Outcomes Research, 2014
Pathogens causing transmissible viral hemorrhagic fevers are therefore classified internationally at the most dangerous hazard level. Most of them may be transmitted through the respiratory tract into human being. For this reason aerosol dissemination of viral pathogens may be considered as biological weapon.

Views of Health Professionals on the Contribution of Climate Change to the Transmission of Lassa Fever in Nigeria and the Implications for Risk Communication

Advances in Public Health, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Lassa fever is an acute viral haemorrhagic illness caused by the Lassa virus and is mainly spread through direct and indirect human–rodent interaction. In Nigeria, Lassa fever outbreaks are becoming more frequent, and studies suggest that changes in climatic and ecological conditions will exacerbate these trends. It is crucial that health professionals

Missed Opportunities for Timely Diagnosis and Effective Therapeutic Management of Prolonged Fever: A Case Study of Confirmed Lassa Fever in N’Zérékoré, Guinea, 2022

Case Reports in Infectious Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Background Lassa fever is a potentially fatal viral hemorrhagic disease caused by a ribonucleic acid (RNA) virus of the Arenaviridae family, endemic in West Africa. It is highly virulent and contagious in several countries, with a nonspecific clinical presentation that poses a major public health challenge.

Post-Ebola Measles Outbreak in Lola, Guinea, January–June 2015

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2016
During public health crises such as the recent outbreaks of Ebola virus disease in West Africa, breakdowns in public health systems can lead to epidemics of vaccine-preventable diseases. We report here on an outbreak of measles in the prefecture of Lola,

Ebola Hemorrhagic Fever(EHF): Mechanism of Transmission and Pathogenicity.

Journal of Nippon Medical School, 2001
Hemorrhagic fevers represent a wide spectrum of viral infectious diseases, out-breaking mostly as epidemics, some of them being highly lethal. They range from those caused by bunyaviridae, associated with renal or pulmonary syndromes and those recently emerging and caused by the filoviridae family of thread-like viruses.
