TL;DR: The 2014 Ebola virus has become more phylogenetically and genetically diverse from July to November 2014, characterized by the emergence of multiple novel lineages and the sharp increase in genetic diversity of the 2014 EBOV.

TL;DR: The incidence of severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome and its epidemic areas are continuing to grow, but the case fatality rate (CFR) has steadily decreased and a predicted risk map of the disease was derived.

TL;DR: It is found that live poultry markets, human population density, irrigated croplands, built-up land, relative humidity and temperature significantly contributed to the occurrence of human infection with H7N9 virus.

TL;DR: Based on the risks and distribution of ecological characteristics which may facilitate the circulation of the two viruses, Yangtze River Delta and Pearl River Delta, along with a few spots on the southeast coastline, are found to be the high risk areas for H7N9 and H5N1.

TL;DR: This is the first study to use the genome-wide scanning to predict microRNAs in the 2014 outbreak EVD and then to apply systematic bioinformatics to analyze their target genes, revealing a potential mechanism of miRNAAs in ebolavirus infection and possible therapeutic targets for Ebola viral infection treatment.
