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.
