Scientists have discovered 20 new bat viruses in China, including strains related to Nipah and Hendra, raising global health ...

Deadly viruses throughout history From the Ebola to COVID-19, diseases caused by viruses have killed humans throughout history. Viruses are much older than human beings, possibly even older than ...

Infections that could trigger severe brain inflammation and respiratory disease have been discovered in bats in China. And there is currently no medication or vaccine to treat them.

SCIENTISTS have raised “urgent concerns” over new viruses discovered in bats which have the potential to spill over into ...

The group used cryo-electron tomography of cells transfected with viral proteins, and infected with model Ebola virus, to illuminate assembly intermediates. They obtained a 9 Å map of the ...

Attacking cancer cells with viruses could therefore exploit this vulnerability, while leaving healthy cells largely unharmed. And the Ebola virus presents a particularly promising candidate.

“A lot of transmission is not being seen, but nobody knows the exact amount,” Watson-Stryker told me. Ebola virus is a microscopic parasite that replicates inside the cells of a host.
