Abstract EN
For a given West African country, we constructed a model describing the spread of the deathly disease called Ebola hemorrhagic fever.
The model was first constructed using the classical derivative and then converted to the generalized version using the beta-derivative.
We studied in detail the endemic equilibrium points and provided the Eigen values associated using the Jacobian method.
We furthered our investigation by solving the model numerically using an iteration method.
The simulations were done in terms of time and beta.
The study showed that, for small portion of infected individuals, the whole country could die out in a very short period of time in case there is not good prevention.
