Zusammenfassung:Ebola virus disease (EVD), formerly known as Ebola hemorrhagic fever, is a severe infectious disease caused by Ebola virus (EBOV) species [1, 2]. EBOV caused an epidemic in West Africa in 2013-2015 [1, 2]. Early diag- nosis of EVD is not only essential for implementation of effective interventions but also critical for prevention of the spread of infection, especially in regions with fragile and underfunded health system [2].
