EBOV CT	Age	Sex	MALDI-TOF result(s)a
24	22 yr	Male	Proteus mirabilis (2.537)
19	33 yr	Female	Rothia mucilaginosa (2.181)
25	60 yr	NDb	Proteus mirabilis (2.427)
14	4 mo	Male	Staphylococcus aureus (2.378) Acinetobacter baylyi (2.054)
26	63 yr	Male	Streptococcus salivarius (2.117) Candida albicans (2.141)

^aScoring for MALDI-TOF results was as follows: 3.000 to 2.300, highly probable species identification; 2.2999 to 2.000, secure genus identification.
