Ebola Virus

from Mayo Clinic Talks · host Mayo Clinic

Host: Darryl S. Chutka, M.D.  Guest: Stacey Rizza, M.D.  We’ve now had our second outbreak of a potentially deadly infectious disease. Hantavirus has been diagnosed in several individuals and most recently just under 100 cases of Ebola Virus have been confirmed along with several hundred suspected cases. Ebola virus is caused by several species of the Ebola Virus and is frequently fatal.  Early symptoms are non-specific and similar to other common viral infections, making an early diagnosis challenging. Who’s at risk of acquiring Ebola Virus? How is it spread from person to person? How deadly is the virus and finally, does it have the potential to become our next pandemic?  In this podcast, we’re going to learn more about Ebola Virus. My guest is an infectious disease specialist, Dr. Stacey Rizza from the Mayo Clinic.  Connect with us! Mayo Clinic Talks Podcast Season 6 | Mayo Clinic School of Continuous Professional Development
