WHO warns of Marburg virus in Equatorial Guinea.

One comment :

The warnings are getting annoying, especially with the Marburg virus, which is a manipulated Ebola virus and was concocted in 1967 in laboratories in Marburg. It is a classic primate filovirus and in Germany in 1967 led failure of a virology that dealt with warfare agents. It shows the same symptoms as Ebola and can be treated well with favipiravir.

I don't know whether the vaccination against the Marburg virus works.

Steven Jones from the University of Manitoba in Winnipeg, Canada :
"If someone in a household falls ill with Ebola or Marburg fever, we could come and vaccinate all the relatives and thus prevent further infections. That would be huge progress."
