zaire

It is closely related to Ebola Zaire, but appears to have involved a different trans-species transmission event than the Zaire strain.

The 90% refers to this specific strain of Ebola, the Zaire strain.

Make a tiny change to the Plank constant, and the Zaire ebolavirus code will do something very different.

The next most recent country going by the list on WP is Zaire (1998) and it wasn't repeating there.

For example Czechoslovakia and Zaire have ceased to exist as countries, and correspondingly the.cs and.zr TLDs have been removed.

No, think Zaire Ebola with a month or two of transmission before the first symptoms.

I went to teach there after a planned group of volunteers for Zaire fell through (for political reasons).

I always thought that the rate at which Ebola Zaire kills its hosts is actually a hindrance to its further evolution.

If that occurred we'd be faced with a plague as deadly as Ebola Zaire with the airborne transmission mechanism of Ebola Reston.

I have always been a bit of a hypochondriac and I was worried about ebola spreading world wide in 1995 during the Zaire outbreak.

The simple truth is that there is no explanation of how the Zaire variant of Ebola arrived in West Africa, travelling over a 1500 miles without any outbreaks between.

(I have family in Guadalajara and Texas, so I've made that drive frequently.) I don't care if a border official knows Zaire from Angola -- just as long as they know the rules and regulations and apply them systematically to visitors.

Not quite "handfuls", but the official outbreak numbers for the Zaire strain, the one causing the current epidemic, never went higher than 318.

"Panique au Zaire") get pretty trashy in a Roger Moore Bond kind of way (but one with the sex scenes left in).

"A chimpanzee cold virus was modified to carry Ebola genetic material conferring protection against the Zaire strain of Ebola." What could possibly go wrong!

"If there were a period of about a week where no symptoms arose, then the virus would become significantly more deadly." This is precisely the problem with the new Ebola Zaire strain: the incubation period varies from ~3-21 days, during which the patient may show no symptoms yet can spread the virus.

The ccTLDs.cs (Czechoslovakia),.dd (East Germany),.yu (Yugoslavia), and.zr (Zaire) were all dissolved some time after the reorganization/renaming of their countries.

Mobutu Sese Seko was the president of Zaire, now called the Democratic Republic of the Congo.

And since Ebola Zaire's mortality rate is 60-90% (early estimates were on the high end) this is an epidemiologist's nightmare.
