Symptoms start two days to three weeks after contracting the virus, with a fever, sore throat, muscle pain, and headaches. Typically nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea follow, along with decreased functioning of the liver and kidneys.
Around this time, affected people begin to bleed both within the body and externally. Prolonged cases are often complicated by the occurrence of long-term problems, such as inflammation of the testicles, joint pains, muscle pains, skin peeling, or hair loss. Eye symptoms, such as light sensitivity, excess tearing, iritis, iridocyclitis, choroiditis, and blindness have also been described.

Since 1976, when the Ebola Hemmorrhagic Fever were first identified, there have been 1,511 human deaths directly attributed to Ebola HF through January, 2008. The actual number is almost certainly higher for three reasons: 1. Ebola occurs most often in parts of the world where communications is difficult, and all cases may not be reported. 2. The diagnosis of Ebola is difficult, and it manifests in ways similar to many other diseases, and so is likely to have been misdiagnosed. 3. The reservoir of Ebola is not known. Often, when Ebola breaks out, the entire population of smaller villages may be destroyed. This would normally stop the spread of the disease. However, Ebola HF in its various forms reappears from time to time. Where the disease stays alive during these periods is unknown. Ergo, in times before any practical communications, population centers could be completely wiped out with no record whatsoever. In perspective, note that while Ebola HF is frequently lethal, its nature and location of incidence has made it a minor player in the world's overall death toll for disease in general and viral infections in particular.

Here is the equilibrium for HF(aq): HF(aq) ---> H^+(aq) + F^-(aq)If HF is added, according to Le Chatelier's Principle, the equilibrium will shift to the right to make more H+ and F-.
HF is hydrogen fluoride.
hf is the energy of photons incident on the surface
where liquid Hf is used
No. Hf is hafnium. HF is hydrofluoric acid. Capitalization matters when writing chemical formulas.
No, HF and KF do not form a buffer solution because a buffer contains a weak acid and its conjugate base (or a weak base and its conjugate acid). HF and KF are both strong acids, so they cannot act as a buffer system.
The incubation period for Ebola HF ranges from 2 to 21 days. The onset of illness is abrupt and is characterized by fever, headache, joint and muscle aches, sore throat, and weakness, followed by diarrhea, vomiting, and stomach pain. A rash, red eyes, hiccups and internal and external bleeding may be seen in some patients.
That is a "relative" question, and depends on who you ask. Depends on how you want to die. Things to consider are: Is it bacterial and possibly treatable with an antibiotic? Is it resistant to antibiotics? Is it a virus? Is it GENETICALLY engineered? The deadliest GERM is going to be a virus. There is no cure for them except that you survive the illness. It has to be nearly 100% Lethal, killing all who have caught it.That puts EBOLA Virus at the top of the list. It is a gruesome, slow, painful way to die. You basically dissolve from the inside out, and bleed from every orifice in the body. There is no cure, and people have not survived with treatment of the symptoms. It has wiped out entire villages with hemorrhagic fever (Ebola HF).Marburg virus, was discovered after an outbreak in Marburg, Germany, in 1967 at a lab. This virus' recognition led to the creation of this virus family. The five species of Ebola virus are the only other known members of the filovirus family. So, there are TWO main types of the virus, and Ebola has 5 subtypes under it, for a total of 6, deadly hemorrhagic fever viruses.The Ebola recognized outbreaks have been confined to Africa. Outside of Africa, the disease has, so far, been confined to research primates. The strains of Ebola are named by the area of the breakouts.
