Detection of ebola virus in pigs

They worry that this virus has mutated on pigs, thereby causing danger to humans.

The virus was discovered in a monkey herd in 1989, but unlike the Ebola virus, it has not affected the human body so far.

But researchers are concerned about Reston appearing in human plant chains. They wrote in scientific journals: "Pig infection with Reston abola has caused concern. This can cause Reston to mutate on pigs, which in turn leads to virus mutation, and It can cause a new kind of disease. "

The researchers added that they took blood samples from the 114 employees of the Philippine farm, finding out that six people were infected with the abola Reston virus, but they had no symptoms of viral infection.
