Ebola-Infected Liver Tissue




This is a photomicrograph of human liver tissue infected with Ebola virus, the cause of African Hemorrhagic Fever


Infections with Ebola virus are acute. There is no carrier state. Because the natural reservoir of the virus is unknown, the manner in which the virus first appears in a human at the start of an outbreak has not been determined.
