Ebola virus, molecular model
Ebola virus. Molecular model showing the structure of an ebola virus. It consists of a ribonucleic acid (RNA) genome (orange) within a protein nucleocapsid (white blobs), which is surrounded by a glycoprotein envelope (smooth white). This virus is the cause of ebola haemorrhagic fever in humans and nonhuman primates. It is a severe and often fatal disease with symptoms including fever, fatigue, muscle aches, vomiting, diarrhoea and haemorrhaging (internal bleeding). There is no cure for the disease, but three quarters of patients can recover of provided with sufficient medical support

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate molecular structure of the Ebola virus, offering a glimpse into the microscopic world of pathogens. The image reveals an orange ribonucleic acid (RNA) genome nestled within a protein nucleocapsid, represented by white blobs. Surrounding this core is a smooth white glycoprotein envelope that gives the virus its distinctive appearance. The Ebola virus depicted here is notorious for causing Ebola hemorrhagic fever in both humans and nonhuman primates. This severe and often fatal disease manifests through various distressing symptoms such as fever, fatigue, muscle aches, vomiting, diarrhea, and internal bleeding. Despite its menacing nature, there is currently no cure for Ebola. However, with sufficient medical support provided to patients battling this formidable pathogen, three-quarters of them can recover from the illness. Through this stunning illustration created by 3dciencia and captured by Ramon Andrade from Science Photo Library, we are reminded of the critical importance of understanding these microorganisms that pose significant threats to human health. It serves as a reminder for scientists and researchers to continue their tireless efforts in unraveling the mysteries surrounding viruses like Ebola while emphasizing our collective responsibility in preventing future outbreaks through education and effective public health measures.
