Virus causes gruesome symptoms in victims from "summary" of The Hot Zone by Richard Preston

The Ebola virus is a predator that moves among humans. It is a life form, an unknown life form that is capable of causing disease. The virus is highly contagious and it can be transmitted through the air, through droplets of body fluids, and through contact with infected blood. Once it enters the body, it begins to replicate rapidly, overwhelming the immune system. The virus then spreads throughout the body, causing damage to organs and tissues. The symptoms of Ebola are gruesome. Victims experience high fever, severe headache, muscle pain, weakness, and fatigue. They may also suffer from diarrhea, vomiting, and abdominal pain. As the disease progresses, patients may develop a rash, red eyes, and internal and external bleeding. The virus attacks multiple systems in the body, leading to organ failure and death. The effects of Ebola on the body are devastating. The virus destroys the lining of blood vessels, causing them to leak and bleed. This results in a drop in blood pressure and a lack of oxygen to the tissues. Organs such as the liver, kidneys, and brain begin to fail, leading to a rapid deterioration of the patient's condition. The rate of mortality from Ebola is high, with some strains of the virus causing death in up to 90% of cases. The disease is so deadly because it overwhelms the body's defenses and causes massive damage. There is currently no cure for Ebola, and treatment is limited to supportive care. The only way to prevent the spread of the virus is through strict isolation and quarantine measures.
