Ebola Virus Disease (EVD) is one of the deadliest infectious diseases known to humanity. Outbreaks of the disease are marked by rapid contagion, high (case) fatality rates, and major difficulties for the healthcare system especially in the African continent. In the last few years, however, the global healthcare system has responded to the Ebola virus through improved disease detection technologies, treatment options, and outbreak control measures, thus increasing its ability to manage Ground Zero (Ebola patients) and respond to the Ebola virus.
The Ebola Virus is one of the viruses in the Filoviridae family. The virus is contracted in several ways, including: direct contact with the blood and body fluids of an infected person, contact with infected person’s body fluids on a contaminated surface, and contact with infected (Ebola) animals, e.g. Bats, monkeys/primates.
Ebola Virus Disease presents with several non-specific symptoms and a myriad of complications including internal bleeding and organ failure.
As noted earlier, The Ebola Virus Disease presents with a myriad of symptoms and is the most difficult to detect. These improvements include but are not limited to:
The described advancements have resulted in a significant reduction of the time required for detection and diagnosis of the Ebola virus. This has enabled faster isolation and treatment of infected individuals.
Historically, treatment for Ebola was limited to supportive care, but targeted therapies have recently been developed that significantly improve survival rates.

These treatments have made it possible for the better prognosis than death from an Ebola infection to be possible.
Vaccine development is one of the most vital Ebola control breakthroughs.
A powerful, multi-tier response is required to control Ebola on the level of public health. Rapid isolation and quarantine, followed by contact tracing to monitor and control the exposed, are a start. Standard chain infection controls like PPE and sanitation on infection control are required along with community-based awareness to change behaviors. The World Health Organization is a leader in coordinating the response of the health organization system around the world to combat the Ebola virus.
The remote outbreak continents of the World have serious barriers to health care. Delayed isolation and contact tracing expose cultural barriers to rapid response. The continued threat of viral zoonotic infection strings worldwide outbreaks to the continued collaboration and healthcare investment.
Biotechnology, vaccines, and global surveillance systems show more proactive strategies for Ebola management. AI-based predictive models and portable diagnostics are among new technologies improving response systems.
The new global strategies against Ebola are focused on early detection, targeted treatment, and efficient vaccination, and are more innovative and better than ever before. Nonetheless, with continued innovative and collaborative strategies, it gives hope that Ebola can be contained and possibly eradicated. Once a deadly disease, it can become a public health menace.
