What pronoun is Ebola?
The word 'Ebola' is not a pronoun.The word 'Ebola' is a noun, a word for a type of infectious disease, a word for a thing.A pronoun is a word that takes the place of a noun in a sentence.The pronoun that takes the place of the noun Ebola is it.Example: Ebola is a viral disease. Itcurrently has no cure. (the pronoun 'it' takes the place of the noun 'Ebola' in the second sentence)
What is the chance of getting the west nile virus?
Your chance of getting ebola depends on where you live and when and where you travel. If you live in a place with easy access to good health care, and you take care of yourself and stay healthy, you will likely not contract ebola unless you swap bodily fluids with an infected person. Your chance of contracting ebola goes up if you live in a place without health care access or if you're very unhealthy. Still, in every circumstance, in order to contract ebola, you have to somehow share bodily fluids with an infected person.
What happened to Peter Cardinal from Hot Zone?
In the book, Peter (not his real name) died of Marburg Hemorrhagic Fever. His real surname may likely be Ravn, a common Danish surname listed as the 73rd most common. The book identifies him as a 10yr old young Dane. This conflicts with the info on the WHO site which lists all the Filovirus outbreaks and lists him as aged 15. The virus causing his death is listed there as Ravn(1987). This information was not avaliable when Preston wrote the book. This name follows one of the standard methods of naming new viruses - the name of the 1st victim and the year they died. The various Filovirus species (Marburg, Ebola and the recently discovered Cuevavirus) undergoes frequent name changes as more information comes to light. For example the names of the Ebola family have changed some half dozen times since their discovery. Eg The last of the 5 Ebola species identified so far was first called Cote d'Ivorie Virus, then it was changed to Ivorycoast Virus. It is now known as Tai Forest Virus, after the place on the Ivory Coast where it was first discovered. Currently the Filoviruses consist of the following three families comprising a total of 8 species Marburgvirus:- Marburg Virus Ravn Virus Ebolavirus:- Ebola Zaire Ebola Sudan Ebola bundibugyo Tai Forest Virus Ebola Reston Cuevavirus:- Loviu Virus All except Reston cause seriously fatal hemorrahgic fevers with fatality rates from 20% to over 90%. Reston Kills >90% of infected monkeys, but does not produce any human illness.

What is the Ebola virus?
The Ebola hemorrhagic fever (BHF) or Ebola virus is a virus that causes hemorrhaging that can't be stopped in the countries it came from. It only passes through bodily fluids. Those also include blood, sweat, breast milk, mucus, vomit, feces, urine, semen, vaginal fluids, and saliva. Not unless the person had symptoms and you had direct contact with their bodily fluids. You can

What is the most deadly pathogen?
ANSWER:There are three different ways to answer this question, so Ill answer thrice. Influenza. The Flu, over history is responsible for more deaths than any other. In 1918, the Spanish Flu devastated the human species, killing more than 50 million people worldwide, a record for viruses.The Human Immunodeficiency Virus (H.I.V.) is a more recent virus which is just as deadly, so it doesn't have the numbers that Influenza does. Influenza also has the ability to adapt and form new strains every flu season, making it hard to combat and rendering the inoculations (or Flu shots) more ineffective and less reliable each year.In regards to what virus kills the quickest, the Ebola Virus wins first place. It kills when your vital organs basically liquefy in place and you die. This can happen within the first 24 to 48 hours from exposure to the virus.Answer 2:Ebola is widely considered the "nastiest" of viral diseases. It is compared to AIDS in many ways. Fortunately, the Ebola Virus is not extremely common. However, when there is an outbreak, it is noted as extremely deadly. It is considered one of the most infectious diseases due to it being able to spread quite easily through the transaction of body fluids (a dirty needle is a major cause, and, like AIDS, it is noted for its ability to travel via sexual intercourse. This is more famous for Ebola's twin, less deadly virus, Marburg). Ebola is also able to travel in the air, but it does so with difficulty. There's never been a major outbreak outside of Africa, though small occurrences do pop up around the world. The Twin Virus, Marburg, is aptly named for its breakout in Marburg, Germany.The Ebola Virus (not the Marburg Virus) has two prominent subspecies: Ebola Sudan and Ebola Zaire.Marburg is the least deadly form of Ebola, with a mortality rate below 50%.Sudan is slightly worse with a mortality rate just below 70%.Zaire is considered the worse, with a shocking mortality rate measuring above 90%.The events recorded in the true story-novel "The Hot Zone", are chronicles of the Ebola outbreaks. It culminates in the climax of the novel outside of Washington DC where an outbreak of Ebola was barely dodged. The subspecies there was particularly deadly toward non-human primates and was discovered in the Reston monkey house in the suburb of Reston.Ebola is perhaps not the deadliest virus due to its uncommon nature and its inability to spread as much as HIV (the virus that causes AIDS), but it is perhaps the most violent. Victims of Ebola suffer internal bleeding and external bleeding, severe hemorrhaging, mental damage, are considered physically "drained" and suffer from vomiting of Ebola infected blood. Their ribcage are noted for collapsing into themselves along with their flesh. It is also a point of importance that, at least in non-human primates (specifically, African Green Monkeys) their flesh "melts" into a form similar to "soup."So yes, Ebola is widely considered not only the most deadly virus in the world, but perhaps the worst disease. It is not as much of an efficient killer as a heart attack or even cancer, but those are not viral or bacterial diseases.ANSWER 3:If you are strictly seeking out which virus kills the highest percent of people who contract it, the answer is rabies. Rabies is fatal in 99.9% of cases from the first onset of symptoms. After being bit there is a 2-30 day period (usually around 4 though) where you show no symptoms at all. On the first day of symptoms, which is usually around day 4 post-bite, you have a 99.9% chance of death within two weeks. The only way to prevent death in rabies infections is to treat with antivirals before the first symptoms appear. If you do not, there is no treatment options available from the onset of symptoms. There have been less than 10 recorded cases of survival from rabies in the history of the disease which, clinically, has been recognized for hundreds of years.
