The body reacts to the Ebola virus about four to ten days after the virus has infected your cells. Keep in mind that it doesn't take much for Ebola, or any virus, to infect your cells, so common symptoms may start randomly and abruptly. Early symptoms include: Fever, joint and muscle pain, chills, weakness, server headache, and sore throat.
Over time, keep in mind Ebola kills quickly, symptoms may include: nausea and vomiting, diarrhea (often times bloody), red eyes, raised rash (on dark skin the rash is often not recognized until it peels), chest pain, dry or hacking cough, stomach pain, server weight loss, internal bleeding, and bleeding from ears, eyes, mouth, rectum, and nose. Please note, in the case of a pregnant woman often they have a miscarriage and heavy vaginal bleeding.
Death usually occurs within the second week of the symptoms due to loss of blood.
