Virus Bundibugyo preocupa a la OMS por expansión de cepa del ébola; ¿qué es? #shorts

追加: 2026-05-27

The Bundibugyo virus, one of the Ebola virus strains affecting humans, has caused only two previous small outbreaks, resulting in limited medical experience with this pathogen. It is transmitted through the same routes as other Ebola viruses and carries a mortality rate of 30% or higher, though precise statistics remain uncertain due to the scarcity of cases. Despite potentially being less deadly than the Zaire strain, the virus remains a significant health concern, prompting the World Health Organization to express worry about its potential spread beyond Africa.
