Abstract: 

埃博拉之役四十年

本文概要:埃博拉病毒疫情自1976年在苏丹南部和旧扎伊尔的埃博拉河地区初次爆发,三年后在苏丹同一地区小规模复发一次后则沉寂了15年。1994年在加蓬地区再次突然复苏,至今在非洲多国已反复爆发15次,造成了4362人感染,2659人死亡。2014年,西非几内亚、利比里亚、尼日利亚和塞拉利昂爆发了历史上最严重和情况最复杂的疫情,局面失控。埃博拉病毒流行无明显的季节性,人群普遍易感且无性别差异,其天然宿主仍不确定。近四十年,疫情在一个地区消散后不知何时会在另一个地区突然暴发,被形容为像光的波粒二象性一般难以理解。由于埃博拉病毒对人体多器官普遍攻击而防范困难,加之开发病毒防治药物项目资金匮乏,人类至今没有找到能有效对抗埃博拉疫情的预防及治疗措施
