Ebola Research
Ebola is a deadly and serious transmitted disease. This virus started in 1976 in Sudan and the Democratic Republic of Congo, which was named after the Ebola River in Congo. In March 2014, an outbreak occurred in West Africa, but this disease is even more deadlier than most previous outbreaks. These virus types cause hemorrhagic fever or bleeding inside and outside of the body. Ebola was originated likely from African Fruit Bats, also transmitting it to other humans with “Breastmilk,saliva,sweat,urine and vomit.”
There is no cure at the moment but there are ways of preventing it from being transferred to you “avoiding contact with blood and body fluid,washing hands with soap and water or hand sanitizer, or touching bedding,clothing,needles or medical equipment. The symptoms of Ebola are Diarrhea,bleeding,bruising,stomach pain,muscle pain,fever,headache and vomiting. This can damage the immune system and organs,it causes blood clotting cells to drop. There are five types of Ebola viruses,four of them cause disease in humans.
Ebola has viral RNA's invitro,NP,VP30,VP35,and L. Ebola can be mostly found in countries such as Guinea,Liberia, and Sierra Leone as of October 19. The first person to be diagnosed with Ebola in America was Liberian man Eric Thomas,arrived on September 20 and died on October 8. Five Americans infected with the disease from Africa have been brought back to America for treatments in isolation units. The virus usually kills people quickly or can take 7 to 14 days after the symptoms appear.
The only treat available are supportive kinds such as IV fluids ad medications to level out blood pressure. Simple steps to control infection, such as gloves,gowns and protective eye wear. But it can take up to 3 to 6 months for turning the tide in Western Africa. However,since the virus isn't airborne,it would take very close contact with someone who has Ebola to get it transferred to you. People who were exposed to that strain of Ebola did not get sick but did develop antibodies.
Ebola has a negative strand RNA Ebola virus genome,surrounding an outer lipid made from the membrane of the host cell. It has many functions in maintaining homeostasis,between blood and tissue and fluid homeostasis are regulated in two ways. Transport of Macromolecules,such as albumin through the Endothelium. The virus surfaced Glycoprotein,and must utilize the cells Ribosomes. Endoplasmic reticulum was observed to accumulate in Ebola.
