Ebola, called Ebola Virus Disease (EVD), is one of the deadliest viruses, and its commonly affecting humans or nonhuman primates as monkeys and gorillas.
It was first discovered in 1976, when two outbreaks occurred in different part of Central Africa. The first outbreak was in the Democratic Republic of Congo, in a village near the Ebola River, which gave the virus its name. The second outbreak was in South Sudan, around 850 km away.
The Ebola virus spreads trough infected body fluids, so if a person touches objects that are contaminated with them, they can get infected. It can also occur if a person gets infected body fluids in the eyes, mouth, nose or in a wound.
