Ebola virus particle
Ebola virus particle, computer artwork. This thread-like RNA (ribonucleic acid) virus is the cause of ebola haemorrhagic fever in humans. It takes its name from the location of the first recorded outbreak near the Ebola river in the Democratic Republic of Congo. Ebola can be contracted by handling material from infected animals pr through contact with bodily fluids or infected patients. Symptoms include a high fever, haemorrhaging and central nervous system damage. There is no cure and treatment is mostly supportive

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate structure of an Ebola virus particle, depicted through stunning computer artwork. The thread-like RNA (ribonucleic acid) virus is notorious for causing the devastating Ebola hemorrhagic fever in humans. Its name originates from the first recorded outbreak near the Ebola river in the Democratic Republic of Congo. The image serves as a reminder of the grave dangers posed by this pathogen, which can be contracted through various means such as handling infected animals or coming into contact with bodily fluids or patients carrying the virus. Symptoms include a high fever, severe bleeding, and damage to the central nervous system. Unfortunately, there is currently no cure for Ebola, and treatment primarily focuses on providing supportive care to affected individuals. Through its artistic representation, this illustration not only highlights Africa's connection to this deadly disease but also emphasizes its significance within fields like biology and medicine. The single-threaded appearance of the virus adds to its biological complexity and reinforces its status as a formidable pathogenic force. As we gaze upon this thought-provoking artwork from Science Photo Library, we are reminded of both the scientific importance and human impact associated with viral outbreaks like Ebola hemorrhagic fever.
