A thread virus is a virus that resembles a string or thread because it abnormal long shape, sometimes they may be curled up into a sort of circular form to resemble a normal virus cell. The Latin term for thread virus is filovirus, this is a family of viruses that includes Ebola Zaire, Ebola Sudan, Marburg, and a few others. These viruses are relatively incurable. The worst of the thread viruses is Ebola Zaire which is called the "Slate wiper" because the Death Rate for humans is 9/10. A New York Times best seller "The Hot Zone" by Richard Preston was published 1995 to create awareness towards these threatening viruses.

What three main structures do viruses have?

Viruses are composed of two main parts: an outer protein covering called a capsid and an inside core of either DNA or RNA. Not both DNA and RNA.Some of these have an envelope over the capsid. The ones that do not are said to be naked. The proteins in the capsid allow the virus to attach to the "docking stations" proteins of the host cell.The naked viruses are more resistant to changes in the environment.A virus can have one of three structures. These are:Helical virus. A helical virus is rod- or thread-shaped. The virus that causes rabies is a helical virus.Icosahedral virus. An icosahedral virus is spherically shaped. Viruses that cause poliomyelitis and herpes simplex are icosahedral viruses.Polyhedral virus.
