How to Protect Yourself Against Infections
... One of the most potent weapons we have against the virus is the flu vaccine that is formulated every year to prevent infection. Due to the rapid rate of mutation in the virus genome, the CDC needs to create a new vaccine each year. The shot you got last year will not protect you from this year’s vers ...

Marburg virus disease
Marburg virus disease (MVD; formerly Marburg hemorrhagic fever) is a severe illness of humans and non-human primates caused by either of the two marburgviruses, Marburg virus (MARV) and Ravn virus (RAVV). MVD is a viral hemorrhagic fever (VHF), and the clinical symptoms are indistinguishable from Ebola virus disease (EVD).
