Marburg virus belongs to the family of viruses that cause hemorrhagic fever. The disease spreads through contact with infected animals or people and affects both people and other primates, like apes and monkeys.

The virus is found in the saliva, urine and feces of infected Egyptian rousette bats. Once the disease has passed from wildlife to people, those who have the disease may spread the virus to other people. Someone may become infected if they have contact with the body fluids of a person who is sick or with objects contaminated with the ill person's fluids.
