[Ebola]:

The e-virus that appears in this book is based on an infectious disease known as Ebola (also known as "Ebola", "Ebola"). Pen ~ fun ~ Ge www.biquge.info now include the relevant information of the Ebola virus as follows:

Ebola virus, also known as Ebola virus, is a virulent infectious virus that can cause Ebola hemorrhagic fever in humans and primates, with a high mortality rate of between 50% and 90%. The name of the Ebola virus comes from the "Ebola River" in Zaire, Africa.

This virus comes from the "filoviridae" family and is similar to the Marburg virus. The Ebola virus is a very rare virus that was first identified in 1967 in Marburg, Germany, but it went unnoticed at the time. In 1976, after its existence was rediscovered in southern Sudan and Zaire, which is now the Ebola River region of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, it attracted wide attention and attention from the medical community, and "Ebola" got its name. The area is close to the places where the first eruptions recorded in 1976 by Nhoymushola in Yambuku in Zaire and Nzara in western Sudan were recorded. In this outbreak, there were 602 cases of infection and 397 deaths. Of these, Zaire had 284 infections and 151 deaths; Sudan has 284 infections and 151 deaths.

The Ebola virus is very active in the shape of the ancient Chinese "Ruyi", and the virus is mainly transmitted through bodily fluids such as sweat, saliva or blood, with an incubation period of about 2 weeks. Those infected all had a sudden onset of high fever, headache, sore throat, weakness and muscle pain. Then vomiting, abdominal pain, diarrhea. Within two weeks of the onset of the disease, the virus spills out, causing bleeding inside and outside the body, blood clotting, necrotic blood quickly spreads to all organs throughout the body, and the patient eventually develops symptoms such as bleeding from the mouth, nose and anus, and the patient can die within 24 hours.

There are four subtypes of Ebola. The two were named EBO-Z (EBOLA-ZAIRE, Ebola-Zaire) and EBO-S (EBOLA-Sudan) in 1976. The Ebola subtype outbreak in Sudan has a lower mortality rate of about 50% compared to the 90% mortality rate of the Zaire subtype. In 1990, a similar virus was found in monkeys imported from the Philippines to Reston, Virginia. The virus was named ebola-reston.

Further outbreaks occurred in Zaire, Congo (1995 and 2003), Gabon (1994, 1995 and 1996) and Uganda (2000). In 1994, a number of variants of the virus were identified in individual human cases in Ivory Coast.

Of the approximately 1,500 confirmed Ebola cases, the mortality rate is as high as 88%.

Some people have metaphorically said that the role of HIV in a year can be condensed into one week, and that is the power of the Ebola virus.

The Ebola virus is transmitted through bodily fluids, with mucus, saliva or blood being vectors, and even being contagious with a handshake.

(Restrictions on the spread of the virus have been appropriately added in this book, but the time to onset of the virus has been reduced.) The virus is set to be transmitted only through blood, and the onset time is also within one day. ）

The Ebola virus is believed to be parasitic on a local animal or insect, but it is not yet possible to determine what the host is. Dr. Lindsey Martinez of the World Health Organization said: "No one knows where the Ebola virus is hiding between outbreaks and what makes it active?

Tracing the first case is an important part of quarantine. After some scrutiny, it was finally discovered that 36-year-old Estherawete was the first Ebola patient in Uganda. She fell ill with a fever and died 5 days later. According to local custom, the body is laid to rest in the house for two days, waiting for relatives and friends to attend the funeral. At the funeral, relatives of the deceased washed her body and buried her less than 10 meters from her home.

After the ceremony, relatives and friends wash their hands in a large basin of water to symbolize intimacy and unity. Unbeknownst to everyone, Aviti's body carries the Ebola virus, which is like a time bomb. Then her mother, three sisters, her nine-month-old daughter, and three relatives who lived with her died. The only survivor in the family was Aviti's 8-year-old son, who did not attend the funeral that day.

The virus is also spreading near the town of Guru in the northern region of Uganda. After the local government determined that it was Ebola, it immediately banned traditional burials, and all bodies were disposed of and buried by the government to avoid contagion.

After laboratory tests, experts found that the cause was a virus called "ebolasudan in Sudan". At present, there are three known human Ebola viruses, all of which are named after the affected countries, namely "Sudan Ebola", "Zaire Ebola", and "Ivory Coast Ebola".

Sudan Ebola occurred twice in southern Sudan in 1976 and 1979, with a mortality rate of about 65 percent, making it one of the less fatal ones. The Zaire Ebola outbreak in Zaire in 1995 had a mortality rate of 81 per cent, with 315 deaths at that time.

This is the first Ebola outbreak in Uganda, and people around Guru Town don't eat wild animals as often as people living in endemic areas in other countries. In the past few Ebola epidemics, experts suspect that residents have eaten wild animals that carry the virus. Since the pathogen came from Sudan, there is speculation that Ugandan rebels based in Sudan may have inadvertently brought the virus inadvertently.

The April issue of the New England Journal of Medicine published four reports on infectious diseases, including infections caused by the bacterium listeria in maize, encephalitis in pigs in Malaysia, and two intestinal surgeries in a diabetic boy in Atlanta in the United States after eating infected food.

Rural dwellers in developing countries migrate to cities and towns in large numbers to live in unhygienic conditions, creating hotbeds for infectious diseases. On the other hand, the global movement of people and products through maritime and air traffic has expanded the scope of pathogen transmission.

In 1989, 1990 and 1996, U.S. quarantine units found monkeys imported from the Philippines with the RESTON Ebola virus, which is specifically infected with monkeys. The four quarantine personnel developed antibodies in their bodies due to contact, but fortunately did not get sick. Monkey-like Ebola viruses have also been found in Italy and the Philippines.

Dr. Martiniz, who has been involved in the treatment of Ebola in Africa, said: "As humans continue to develop and invade areas that were uninhabited in the past, they will definitely come into contact with insects and animals that they have never touched before, and some hidden germs and viruses are waiting for an opportunity to deal with us." ”

"Ebola" is a river in the Congo where the first case of Ebola was reported in 1976 and has since become the code name for this deadly infectious disease.

4 days after the patient is infected with the virus, he will have cold-like symptoms, fever, headache, sore throat, muscle pain, etc. This was followed by vomiting and bleeding from the anus, followed by bleeding from the nose, gums, eyes, and skin. At this time, the virus also begins to destroy internal organs, and the patient vomits blood due to internal bleeding. Between 50% and 90% of patients die within two weeks of shock due to excessive blood loss.

The virus may remain dormant in the patient's body for up to two weeks, during which time it is not infectious. When cold symptoms appear, infection occurs through body fluids. During bleeding and some time after death, the virus is very infectious and very dangerous.

Researchers have only known that the virus produces large amounts of glycoprotein in blood vessels in the early stages of infection, but they do not know how it causes massive bleeding.

Two or three years ago, Garynabel, a virologist at the University of Michigan, discovered that the glycoprotein sticks to white blood cells called neutrophil. These white blood cells are the frontline of the body's immune system, which is responsible for swallowing and destroying invading bacteria or viruses, and alerting the immune system to mobilize white blood cell B cells to make antibodies and T cells to fight cells that have been infected by the virus.

Researchers speculate that Ebola's glycoprotein encapsulates neutrophil and renders it ineffective, and the virus can attack the cells of the blood vessel wall as if it were no one, weakening or even breaking the blood vessel wall. The patient died of shock due to heavy bleeding and low blood pressure, which prevented the circulatory system from sending blood to vital organs.

[Corpse Poison]:

The main ingredient of the corpse pill, which originally appeared on the ancient "Penglai Xiandao" (an island in the sea), is an active organism that is black in color. How did the corpse poison come about? No one can answer this question, and mutationists speculate that it may be an ancient life form that mutated under certain conditions; Intrusors speculate that it may be an extraterrestrial virus that entered the Earth through meteorites and other means, while religious theorists speculate that it is a weapon that the creator god has shed to purify the world......

Corpse poison does not have an obvious cell structure, and its characteristic is to invade the cells of other organisms to complete its own life functions.

Other properties of corpse poison can be found in this book.

[Corpse Pill]:

Ancient monks fused corpse poison with relics, 10,000-year-old ginseng, as well as earthworms, geckos, turtles, and cockroaches...... and other animals and plants with tenacious vitality, smelted into ammunition in a special way. Later, after analysis, this elixir was a form of corpse poison that invaded a variety of biological cells and was transformed under the self-protection mechanism.

Additional information about the corpse pill can be found in this book.

【Punisher】:

In the course of fighting zombies for thousands of years, the Blood Curtain cultists discovered a substance that can suppress corpse poison and promote the decay and decomposition of corpses, which was first discovered in a common food (yes, glutinous rice). This is where the legend of ancient zombies fearing glutinous rice comes from. Since this premise is not very rigorous, I will mention it in the book. Later, the substance was extracted and used against zombies, known as the "Blood Pill". Up to now, Ye Xiaoyu has fused the "Blood Transformation Pill" with a decomposing bacterium in the experiment, thus forming an organic life form with extremely strong decomposition ability, which is named "Punisher".

The above viruses are all living organisms, and they all need oxygen in the blood to divide and reproduce. So if it doesn't get into the bloodstream, it won't have a seizure. The "Punisher" is a powerful organism that Ye Xiaoyu has researched to eliminate viruses, so it is impossible for him to reproduce endlessly like a virus. So I added a self-destructive mechanism to the book -- the "punisher" breaks down red blood cells. When the "Punisher" enters the living organism, it will attack all viruses and cells...... Eventually, the red blood cells are broken down, leaving no oxygen supply and eventually self-destructing. However, its vitality is tenacious, and it will continue to survive for a few days without red blood cells, so there is the problem of "key poison" raised by the book friend Starry Night Shadow.

In my setting, the above viruses have strong self-instinct and survival reflexes, and are able to self-regulate according to the environment, and this is the basis for mutation.

I'll show you all the specific settings in the book. Stay tuned.
