10 Marburg Virus Symptoms
5. Diarrhea
Another symptom of the Marburg virus is diarrhea. It will often be quite severe and the patient is likely to experience malnutrition and dehydration as a result of the diarrhea. The symptom will help to worsen the other problems already being experienced by the patient.
Patients with diarrhea should be monitored closely to ensure that they do not become dehydrated. Even when the symptom is caused by an illness that is not serious, it is still wise to closely monitor vulnerable people, notably the very young and the very old. Patients with the Marburg virus are also likely to experience abdominal pain.
