Shaw's father and the Sacrificial Engineer died similar deaths (Ebola connection?)

I could not help but think about this similarity, that Shaw's father and the sacrificial engineer died of essentially the same thing, rapid cellular breakdown. Is Ebola a remnant of the liquid the sacrificial engineer drank??

For those that don't know, Ebola basically liquifies you: "The Ebola virus attacks connective tissue multiplying rapidly in collagen. Collagen is the tissue that helps to keep the organs in place. The tissue is basically digested by this virus. Spontaneous bleeding then occurs from body orifices and gaps in the skin, such as needle puncture marks and rips that can suddenly appear. Death is caused by huge loss of blood, renal failure, or shock."
