這個致死率是70%, 應該是一篇論文的估計值: CRF (case fatality rate) 70.8% Ebola Virus Disease in West Africa 該文作者提到: "The implication is that many true EVD case patients in Liberia may have died before receiving a definitive diagnosis." 也就是指下列5成左右的實際統計中, 沒有把一些死亡的人確診為EVD病例列入計算.
Ebola virus epidemic in West Africa "As of 15 October 2014, the World Health Organization (WHO), the United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), OCHA and local governments reported a total of 8,998 suspected cases and 4,493 deaths (4,995 cases and 2,729 deaths having been laboratory confirmed),[2][3][5] though the WHO believes that this substantially understates the magnitude of the outbreak[10] with possibly 2.5 times as many cases as have been reported."
