    Document: Marburg hemorrhagic fever, caused by Marburg virus (MARV) of the genus Marburgvirus, is characterized by its high casefatality rate. Also belonging to the family of Filoviridae, MARV shares a lot of characteristics with EBOV. However, historically less frequent outbreaks with fewer affected individuals have occurred. 86 It both poses a great potential public health threat as an emerging virus and is listed as a category A bioterrorism agent by the Center for Disease Control (CDC), making vaccine development a priority. Despite decades of research, no licensed vaccines or therapies are available to date. However, ample preclinical data on rVSV-vectored MARV vaccine candidates have been generatedoften alongside the EBOV vaccine candidates, both as a pre-exposure prophylactic as well as a postexposure vaccine (reviewed in 15, 87, 88 ).
