Resurgence of Ebola Virus Disease in Guinea Linked to a Survivor with Virus Persistence in Seminal Fluid for More Than 500 Days

Clinical Infectious Diseases, Volume 63, No. 10, Year 2016

We report on an Ebola virus disease (EVD) survivor who showed Ebola virus in seminal fluid 531 days after onset of disease. The persisting virus was sexually transmitted in February 2016, about 470 days after onset of symptoms, and caused a new cluster of EVD in Guinea and Liberia.
