A Review on Ebola Virus Disease

Abstract

In humans and other primates, the very pathogenic Ebola virus causes severe hemorrhagic fever. The virus is spread by direct contact with contaminated body fluids, and it has a high death rate. The current Ebola epidemics throughout West Africa have brought attention to the critical need for better Ebola diagnostic equipment, vaccines, and therapies. This research report gives an in-depth analysis of the history, epidemiology, pathophysiology, clinical symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment of the Ebola virus. The report also addresses the ongoing research being done to create efficient Ebola vaccines and treatments. In-depth literature reviews, data analysis, and interviews with subject-matter experts were all part of the research. According to the findings, there is still more to be done to tackle the persistent threat of Ebola, even though tremendous progress was made in studying the genetics of the virus and creating viable therapeutics. The paper closes with suggestions for further study and policy initiatives, including more financing for Ebola study and development, expanded public awareness and education campaigns, and improved monitoring and epidemic response. This project's overarching objective is to support international efforts to stop and contain Ebola.
