Labels Ebola Hemorrhagic Fever
Ebola hemorrhagic (e-BO-luh heh-muh-RAH-jik) fever is a rare viral
disease that may cause severe internal and external bleeding and that
results in death in 50 to 90 percent of those who have been infected. Its
contagiousness, high lethality, and short incubation period (seven days is the
average), have raised fears of its use as a potential agent of bioterrorism.
