1 Identification of essential outstanding questions for an adequate European laboratory response to Ebolavirus Zaire West Africa 2014  Chantal Reusken, Matthias Niedrig, Suzan Pas, Pedro Anda, Sylvain Baize, Remi Charrel, Antonino Di Caro, Christian Drosten, Maria Dolores Fernandez-Garcia, Leticia Franco, Stephan Gunther, Isabelle Leparc-Goffart, Byron Martina, Delphine Pannetier, Anna Papa, Maria Paz Sanchez-Seco, Olli Vapalahti, Marion Koopmans  Journal of Clinical Virology  Volume 62, Pages (January 2015) DOI: /j.jcv Copyright © 2014 Elsevier B.V.

2 Fig. 1 Algorithm for EBOV laboratory investigation based on RT-PCR techniques. It is important to notice that diagnosing a microbe from the DD list in a suspected patient, for example, a positive Malaria outcome does not exclude EVD. Co-infections with malaria have been reported from West-Africa [17] (EMLab consortium pers. comm.).
