The most well-known members of this family include the Ebola virus and the Marburg virus, both of which can lead to high mortality rates. Filoviruses are typically transmitted through direct contact with infected bodily fluids or contaminated surfaces. Research into these viruses is crucial for developing effective treatments and vaccines.
