Extended Data Fig. 5: Secondary transmission associated with infection of a motorcycle taxi driver.

From: Integration of genomic sequencing into the response to the Ebola virus outbreak in Nord Kivu, Democratic Republic of the Congo

Extended Data Fig. 5

The horizontal axis represents nucleotide substitutions relative to the EBOV genome sequence from the infected motorcycle taxi driver (MAN12309). Twenty other samples had identical genome sequences, as indicated in the figure by their position at 0 nucleotides diverged. Distance along the y-axis has no meaning, and only serves to separate samples for visualization. Additional sequenced cases in Mabalako were more genetically diverged from MAN12309, indicating additional propagated transmission following this event.
