CT, cycle threshold.
ZEBOV, Zaire Ebola virus.
Cases were classified as “confirmed EVD” if positive by at least 2 of the 3 following molecular tests: mNGS, qRT-PCRDRC, and qRT-PCRUS; “probable EVD” if positive by 1 of the 3 tests; “non-EVD” if negative by all 3 tests (and qRT-PCRDRC testing had been performed); or “indeterminate EVD” otherwise.
NT, not tested.
