Hi Andres, Welcome to the list! From what I understand, you want to associate a given strain, such as MK13013 or the longer version Ebola virus/H.sapiens-wt/SLE/2015/Makona-1309_C2_MK13013, with a clinical case? That should be possible in several ways, either as a free text data element, an option set, or as metadata attribute
Take a look at some of the options in the manual: Metadata attributes: https://docs.dhis2.org/master/en/user/html/manage_attribute.html#about_attribute Option sets: https://docs.dhis2.org/master/en/user/html/manage_option_set.html If you want more of the meta-data such as the complete sequence, it should in theory be possible, but a link to the ncbi would perhaps be the best.
