Well, there's no official cure. But it's possible to survive ebola. Not everyone who contracts ebola is going to die, and most of the people in the US who showed symptoms had been tested for ebola and they didn't have it. And there's only one official case of ebola, which is the Texas guy. Also, I've heard some doctor in Liberia tried the HIV drug         ( lamiduvine) and it worked on 13 people out of 15. Also, ultraviolet light, heat, and oxygen exposure is able to " deactivate" the virus, according to my studies ( i was paranoid for a period of time last month ''^^) on it. So basically, on its own, ebola is a weak virus outside of the body. But basically, the thing to worry about in ebola is that it'll become airborne. Since ebola is an RNA virus- RNA being ribonucleic acid, which carries DNA information- so it is possible for ebola to mutate every time it copies itself. The risk of ebola outbreak in the US is honestly really low, since ebola can only be spread by unprotected contact. Just as long as possible ebola cases are isolated, we don't have to worry. And also, the symptoms of ebola must already be happening for it to possibly spread. But I'm not saying that you shouldn't take precaution- like Sunset keeps saying, maintain proper hygiene, wash your hands with antibacterial things, and don't touch dirty things. Also, it's advisable to avoid bush meat, like rats, bats, and monkeys- but none of you guys eat that, right? But if you do, try to avoid it- the first documented ebola case is seemed to have been spread by " zoonotic transmission", as in transferred by animals. It's mainly acquired by contact of blood or bodily fluids ( pee, snot, etc) from infected people- I don't think I need to tell y'all to avoid touching snot xD

Ebola symptoms also pertain to different other diseases, such as malaria, typhoid fever, Marburg virus, measles, and leukemia. The first stages are also the common stages of a typical cold, flu, or fever- so chances are really low you'll catch ebola.
