Ebola is a very contagious disease, if you come into contact with it you can get infected, even if you butcher an animal with the disease or come into contact of a dead person who had the disease when they were alive, you can get infected. It's usually in rural areas, but it's spread to dozens of towns and cities across western Africa. The symptoms are red eyes and a skin rash, it's very difficult to tell from other diseases since those are very common signs of other diseases, over 1000 people have gotten the disease and nearly 90% of the time, a person who gets infected with the disease dies. It's just a matter of time before someone infected with the disease gets on an airplane and spreads it to other people. This disease is very deadly and I think a lot of you are underestimating how fast it can spread.
