Ebola virus disease (EVD), formerly known as Ebola haemorrhagic fever, is a severe, often fatal illness in humans. The virus is transmitted to people from wild animals and spreads in the human population through human-to-human transmission. The average EVD case fatality rate is around 50%.
The current average mortality rate from Ebola in West Africa is 50 percent, but an American Ebola outbreak would likely not be as deadly, according to experts.
