9216 people contracted the disease, in past outbreaks it was around or no more that 400 cases. cdc: Laboratory-Confirmed Cases: 4218 Total Deaths: 4555. 2014 Ebola Outbreak in West Africa | Ebola Hemorrhagic Fever | CDC

Approximately 24,000 people die annually in Africa from rabies. Prevalence of rabies - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

New virus in Africa looks like rabies, acts like Ebola

No matter what the figures are, it is a horrible way to suffer. And it seems those living in Africa have more than their fair share of things to worry about.
