Emergent Risk Group-4 (RG-4) Filoviruses: A paradox in progress
Bioinformation. 2023 Aug 31;19(8):829-832. doi: 10.6026/97320630019829. eCollection 2023.ABSTRACTFiloviruses, categorized as World Health Organization (WHO) Risk Group 4 (RG-4) pathogens, represent significant global health risks due to their extraordinary virulence. The Filoviridae family encompasses Ebola strains such as Sudan, Zaire, Bundibugyo, Tai Forest (formerly known as Ivory Coast), Reston, and Bombali, in addition to the closely related Marburg and Ravn virus strains. Filoviruses originated from a common ancestor about 10,000 years ago and displayed remarkable consistency in genetic heterogeneity until the 20th c...
