Basically, if you're poor, you're fucked.
In countries like Nigeria the death rate is far lower (between 10 and 20% I heard) due to higher medical standards. In most western countries it would be caught sooner and treated better with an even lower fatality risk.

African rituals like washing/hugging the dead doesn't help either, nor does them hiding their ill relatives from medical staff. Its meant to be quite difficult to transmit but once you've got it you're fucked. You've got nothing but hope. |

It's a haemorrhagic disease. It affects your internal organs , particularly the kidneys and liver and eventually you have problems with bleeding. It kills between 50 and 90% of those infected. Not something you want more than once.
