摘要

Abstract

The ongoing Ebola outbreak poses an alarming risk to the countries of West Africa and beyond. On August 8

2014

the World Health Organization (WHO) declared the cross-country Ebola outbreak a Public Emergency of International Concern. China has had no confirmed cases of Ebola. In this paper

virologic characteristics

pathogenesis

clinical manifestations

laboratory examination and prophylactic vaccines and therapeutic drugs of Ebola are summarized. Importantly

active responses and actions from China are introduced. Moreover

the key issues in the future prevention and control of Ebola were also addressed.
