Ebola is one of the most notorious infectious diseases in the world. With a mortality rate as high as 50-89% and symptoms such as internal and external bleeding, vomiting blood, abdominal pain and exhaustion, Ebola HF and other viral hemorrhagic fevers are among the most horrifying and lethal infections known to man. Confirmed cases of Ebola Hemorrhagic Fever have occured in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Gabon, Sudan, the Ivory Coast, Uganda, and the Republic of the Congo and being resistant to most antivirals the spread of the disease is very difficult to contain.
