Ebola, also known as Ebola hemorrhagic fever (EHF), is a viral hemorrhagic fever of humans and other primates. Signs and symptoms typically start between two days and three weeks after contracting the virus with a fever, sore throat, muscular pain, and headaches. Vomiting, diarrhoea and rash usually follow, along with decreased function of the liver and kidneys. At this time, some people begin to bleed both internally and externally. The disease has a high risk of death, killing 25% to 90% of those infected with an average of about 50%. This is often due to shock from fluid loss, and typically follows six to 16 days after symptoms appear. The information stated suggests that the Ebola virus is ___. A. lytic, because the virus causes a decrease function in the liver and kidneys.

B. lytic, because of the quick onset of symptoms after infection.

C. lysogenic, because it occurs in humans and other primates.

D. lysogenic, because the virus has a high risk of death.
