Likely answer: Creutzfeldt–Jakob disease (a human prion disease).
Why: CJD (and other prion diseases) are uniformly fatal (near‑100% case fatality) and are extremely rare — about 1–2 cases per million population per year worldwide — so they have one of the highest case fatality rates but among the lowest global incidences.
(If you meant a different list of diseases or a multiple‑choice question, tell me the options and I’ll pick the best one from those.)
