• Ebola Virus Infection
Ebola is a rare but deadly virus that causes bleeding inside and outside the body.
As the virus spreads through the body, it damages the immune system and organs. Ultimately, it causes levels of blood-clotting cells to drop. This leads to severe, uncontrollable bleeding. Ebola can spread from country to country when people travel. The disease, also known as Ebola hemorrhagic fever or Ebola virus, kills up to 90% of people who are infected.
