Also Wondering: Let's say from "day one to death" how long do people live with Ebola? Is it a fast or slow death like within a month of contracting Ebola?
There isn't any hard and fast rule, but in general, an otherwise healthy person is going to be dead WELL within a month's time... or on the way to recovery. That's from day one of SYMPTOMS... not from infections, as it can take up to 3 weeks (21 days) before symptoms start.
From the reports in Africa, people who are getting "state of the art treatment" (for over there, which probably just means IV's and symptomatic care- not life support) are either dying or beginning to show some improvement within about 2 weeks of entering the hospital.
