Snippet: Ebola virus disease (EVD) is a zoonotic disease that causes severe haemorrhagic fever, with high fatality rates of up to 90% in humans. Today, there is no effective treatment available. Personâ€toâ€person transmission occurs through exposure to blood or body fluids, which can threaten other household members and firstâ€line healthcare workers. The first cases of EVD in Guinea were identified on 22 March 2014. It was initially believed that this like previous outbreaks would be selfâ€limiting
Document: Ebola virus disease (EVD) is a zoonotic disease that causes severe haemorrhagic fever, with high fatality rates of up to 90% in humans. Today, there is no effective treatment available. Personâ€toâ€person transmission occurs through exposure to blood or body fluids, which can threaten other household members and firstâ€line healthcare workers. The first cases of EVD in Guinea were identified on 22 March 2014. It was initially believed that this like previous outbreaks would be selfâ€limiting. However, lack of public health infrastructure, delays in virus detection and late implementation of control interventions contributed to widespread transmission of EVD in a region inexperienced in dealing with the disease. Socioâ€cultural and economic factors probably also played a key role in the spread of the disease, resulting in the current largeâ€scale outbreak. Some promising candidate treatments for this disease are now being developed.
