“Ebola has a 90% mortality rate”

It depends on your point of view.

For those poorly treated or not treaded, yes 90%

As the care level increases so do survival rates.

EVD has a risk of death in those infected, between 25% and 90%. As of September 2014, the average risk of death among those infected is 50%. The highest risk of death was 90% in the 2002–2003 Republic of the Congo outbreak.
