Ebola virus is one cause of viral hemorrhagic fever disease and has 5 subspecies, including Ebola Zaire, which was the type identified in the West Africa outbreak in 2014.

Symptoms most often appear 8 to 10 days after exposure to the virus and include fever, headache, joint and muscle aches, weakness, diarrhea, vomiting, stomach pain, lack of appetite, and abnormal bleeding.
Ebola Zaire is a single-stranded RNA virus, and it is the viral RNA that is detected by the Ebola Zaire real-time reverse transcription (rRT) polymerase chain reaction assay. Source: Regenstrief LOINC
