Among 149 men who survived Ebola virus disease (EVD) and donated semen 260-1016 days after EVD onset, Ebola virus (EBOV) ribonucleic acid (RNA) was detected in 13 (9%). Of 137 men who donated semen 2 years after EVD onset, 11 (8%) had an EBOV RNA-positive specimen. The mechanism underlying the persistence of EBOV RNA in semen is unclear, and it is unclear whether the detection of viral RNA represents the presence of infectious virus.
在149名埃博拉病毒病(EVD)幸存者中,他们在EVD发病后260 - 1016天捐献了精液,其中13人(9%)检测到埃博拉病毒(EBOV)核糖核酸(RNA)。在137名EVD发病2年后捐献精液的男性中,11人(8%)的精液标本EBOV RNA呈阳性。EBOV RNA在精液中持续存在的潜在机制尚不清楚,而且病毒RNA的检测是否代表有传染性病毒也不清楚。
