What are the countries of africa with widespread of ebola virus?

It isn't widespread.
It is far too deadly to be widespread at all.
It survives in small isolated pockets between outbreaks.
Outbreaks are localised because of the virulence of the infection and the speed at which it incapacitates the victim.
It kills too fast for it to spread very far - unless it takes a fast transport such as an airliner.

The 4 variants of the Ebola virus are named for the area where they were first seen.

Ebola Zaire (Congo)
Ebola Sudan
Ebola Ivory Coast
Ebola reston (does not appear to cause human disease).

The assumption being that the name indicates the endemic areas. Obviously, due to the transport of infected meat by hunters, the area where a possible infection might be encountered is much larger.

I've included a CDC website below that has some good information.
