Ebola virus disease is caused by infection with the ebola virus, which is a member of the filoviridae family of viruses. the virus is transmitted to humans through contact with infected animals or through contact with the bodily fluids of an infected person. once the virus enters the body, it replicates and spreads through the bloodstream, causing severe symptoms such as fever, headache, vomiting, and diarrhea. in some cases, the virus can cause bleeding from the nose, mouth, and eyes, as well as organ failure and death.
