This one leads to a particularly gruesome end in a period of 24 to 36 hours after symptoms start to show. As a courtesy to those who may be munching away on snacks as they read this, I'll leave out the details and simply advise you to Google the disease name when you have an empty stomach.

 | CleverElsie (12) 11/26/2007 | Very infectious, very deadly. And though it doesn't quite
cause the massive bleeding advertised in most cases, many people will
develop a hemorrhagic rash, and a few really will basically bleed to
death through the ears, nose, and other orifices. With
transfusions, survival is possible, but Ebola acts fast and is almost
always fatal without immediate access to advanced medical treatment.
