This paper will search the origins, types, causes/effects, and what is being done to fight the spread of the Ebola virus the Black Plague of 2014. It is believed that this virus has been in hiding since ancient times. The lack of knowledge about its natural history and reservoirs keeps researchers seeking out the mysterious virus that has no treatment or cure. Based on the available raise and comparisons of similar viruses, researchers believed the virus to be animal-borne and that the host animal is native to Africa. Their attempts reach been unsuccessful, and the source of the viru s or where it circulates in between outbreaks is unknown.There is tho one other virus similar to the Ebola, which is a Filovirus, and that is Marburg. Ebola has a 90% death rate, whereas, Marburg is not as deadly. Their long and rope standardized shape rather than roundness, as is most other viruses, characterize Filoviruses.Ebola is contracted very much like HIV bodily fluids such as blood, vomit, sharing needles, and sexual contact.

The primary symptoms are flu-like sore throat, muscle pain, headaches, and weakness. Then, as it advances, vomiting, diarrhea, rash, and limited kidney and liver functions occur.
