    AbstractViral hemorrhagic fevers (VHF) are serious, often fatal diseases that affect humans and non-human primates. The nomenclature of these diseases has changed in that they are now referred to as viral diseases because the previously named symptoms of fever or hemorrhages are not obligatory. In this article, the focus will be on the VHFs Ebola and Marburg viral disease with the potential for human-to-human transmission; these diseases are so-called high-consequence infectious diseases (HCID), some with considerable potential for epidemic spread and the risk of nosocomial transmission.Thieme.
