No, it is a disease that you get from others who are infected. It is similar to how colds are passed on.

What are the differences between Ebola Zaire and Ebola Sudan?

Ebola Zaire and Ebola Sudan are two distinct species of the Ebola virus, each associated with different outbreaks and varying levels of virulence. Ebola Zaire, typically considered the most lethal strain, has a higher mortality rate and is responsible for the majority of Ebola outbreaks, including the 2014 West Africa outbreak. In contrast, Ebola Sudan has a lower mortality rate and has been less frequently encountered in outbreaks. Genetic differences and variations in host immune responses contribute to their distinct clinical presentations and epidemiology.


How many genetic changes has Ebola gone through?

Perhaps one to then being able to move to humans. Ebola already spreads very easily without more mutations. So do not expect more.

What is the Ebola capsid?

The Ebola capsid is the protein shell that encases the genetic material of the Ebola virus. It consists of a single layer of proteins that form a helical structure, providing protection to the viral RNA and playing a crucial role in viral assembly and infection. The capsid's interactions with host cell machinery are essential for the virus's replication and pathogenicity. Understanding the capsid's structure and function is important for developing treatments and vaccines against Ebola virus disease.
