Days after EBOV challenge are in parentheses. Fever is defined as a temperature more than 2.5°F over baseline or at least 1.5°F over baseline and ≥103.5°F. Mild rash: focal areas of petechiae covering less than 10% of the skin. Lymphopenia and thrombocytopenia are defined by a ≥40% drop in numbers of lymphocytes and platelets, respectively. Leukocytosis and granulocytosis are defined by ≥40% increase in numbers of white blood cells. (ALP) alkaline phosphatase, (ALT) alanine aminotransferase, (AST) aspartate aminotransferase, (APTT) activated partial thromboplastin time, (BUN) blood urea nitrogen, (CRE) creatinine, (CRP) C-reactive protein, (GGT) gamma glutamyltransferase.
