It has an extremely high rate of mortality. It is not impossible to survive an Ebola infection, however it is very unlikely.
There is NO "no effect dose" dose or "lethal effect" dose for viruses, bacteria, and other microorganisms, because they make you ill by multiplying at first in number ('growth')
Ebola Zaire and Ebola Sudan are two distinct species of the Ebola virus, each associated with different outbreaks and varying levels of virulence. Ebola Zaire, typically considered the most lethal strain, has a higher mortality rate and is responsible for the majority of Ebola outbreaks, including the 2014 West Africa outbreak. In contrast, Ebola Sudan has a lower mortality rate and has been less frequently encountered in outbreaks. Genetic differences and variations in host immune responses contribute to their distinct clinical presentations and epidemiology.
As far as we know, Ebola attacks mostly primates. There is some indication that it may also attack the Afrtican Fruit Bat (and by inference, other mammals as well). Some variants of Ebola, notably Ebola reston, were lethal to monkeys but apparently infected humans although -- in humans -- it remained asymptomatic. Bear in mind that we suspect Ebola has been misdiagnosed quite often, as its symptomology is very similar to many other disorders indigenous to Ebola locale.
the difference between nonlethal and lethal is that they both have lethal in there but non means no so nonlethal means no lethal at all. judy wardell=]
HIV is lethal. You will eventually obtain AIDS and then die from it. However, you can slow down the progressing of HIV by taking medications.
The most lethal bloodborne pathogen is generally considered to be the Ebola virus. It causes Ebola virus disease, which has a high fatality rate, often exceeding 50% in outbreaks. Transmission occurs through direct contact with infected bodily fluids, and there is currently no widely available cure or vaccine for all strains. Other notable bloodborne pathogens include HIV and hepatitis B and C viruses, but they typically have lower immediate mortality rates compared to Ebola.
No, there are 5 strains of Ebola. Four of the five strains can make people, monkeys, gorillas, and chimpanzees sick. The fifth virus causes disease in those animals but not in people. The strain in the current outbreak is the most lethal one.

Mainly as non-lethal weapons for offence or defence.

Unless treated, Rabies is lethal. I messes with the brain and does not allow the infected organism to properly function.
The Ebola virus is very deadly but not easy to catch. Ebola is a non air-born disease. This means it can not spread throughout the air. The Ebola disease gets in contact with its host, then gets into the blood steam. During this process it would take about 1-2 weeks before it kills its host.
