Here is some facts about this Ebola outbreak and with my background in the Hazmat & Zoonotic Disease field here is some of my old notes : What are the most common infections I could contract from an animal?

Note that many of these infections are the result of eating undercooked meat, fish and poultry, or involve exotic animals and travel. Anisakiasis Anthrax Babesiosis Brucellosis Campylobacteriosis Ciguatera Fish Poisoning Colorado Tick Fever Cryptosporidiosis Cysticercosis Dengue Dermatophytosis (Ringworm) Domoic Acid Poisoning (Amnesic Shellfish Poisoning) Echinococcosis (Hydatid Disease) Ehrlichiosis Encephalitis (specify etiology) Escherichia coli 0157:H7 Infection Food borne disease Giardiasis Hantavirus Infections Leptospirosis Listeriosis Lyme Disease Lymphocytic Choriomeningitis Malaria Paralytic Shellfish Poisoning Plague, Human or Animal Psittacosis Q Fever Rabies, Human or Animal Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever Salmonellosis (Other than Typhoid Fever) Scombroid Fish Poisoning Swimmers Itch (Schistosomal Dermatitis) Toxoplasmosis Trichinosis Tuberculosis Tularemia Viral Hemorrhagic Fevers (e.g., Crimean-Congo, Ebola, Lassa and Marburg viruses) Water-associated Disease Yellow Fever Yersiniosis
