Filovirus Host Range?

Recommended Posts

Does anybody know what the host range is for filoviruses (i.e. Ebola and Marburg)? I mean I known that they can infect most if not all types of mammals as well as several species of birds, but I can't find the actual host range anywhere. Any help here would be appreciated.

Hi,

 

This is probably too late but I don't think virologists know the host range for Ebola and Marburg Viruses. I think I saw somewhere however that it may be monkeys.

 

Hope this helps.
