AbstractFiloviruses, including Ebola virus, are associated with outbreaks of severe febrile illness with high fatality rates in humans. The 2014 outbreak of Ebola virus in West Africa is by far the largest outbreak in history and the first to spread to highly populated urban areas. The potential for such an epidemic to spread beyond Africa through international travel has raised concern in the world community as well as in American and international health agencies. This article presents background information, personal and public protective strategies, and treatment recommendations for emergency physicians.
