| Ebola virus (-)ssRNA f. Filoviridae |
The UN is taking up issues on Ebola. The deadly disease is known to have high mortality rate of 90%. President Obama said we can prevent the disease if we act fast. The Ebola virus can only be transmitted by physical contact, not by air. There is less chance of the spread of the disease among developed nations for the reason; it is a matter of washing hands.
