My impression is that we still don’t fully understand the replication and transmission sequences for the various strains of ebola.
Symptoms seem to be secondary to tertiary symptoms of the actual viral attacks and easily confused with other viral symptoms until its too late.
Additionally, the 2-22 day period before symptoms become manifest, not only make it difficult to identify or verify, it encourages either very costly quarantine or very hazardous risk of exponential contagious dispersion, simply by inaction and relaxed precautions.

I totally agree with you. Proof that Ebola mutates is evident in the fact that there are currently five different strains of Ebola each with different mortality rates, attributes and symptoms. Apparently is already had mutated considerably.
