Ebola kills people far too quickly to cause an epidemic Although not pleasant at all for the first victims, it would incredibly hard to spread it beyond them, since they will be incapacitated and die before they get a chance to sneeze on someone. Incredibly easy to identify, poor at airborne transmission, finicky to work with, Ebola will not cause any widespread pandemics.

Of course, there are far more dangerous micro-organisms. Anthrax comes to mind.
