Abstract

An elegant approximation of the fractional-order epidemic model's for Ebola Virus Disease (EVD) transmission combined with contact tracing and quarantine is presented in this study. The EVD model is governed by a system of nonlinear ordinary differential equations of fractional order described in Caputo sense. The Adams-Bashforth-Moulton algorithm is applied to simulate the model and compared with Runge-Kutta method in the case of integer-order derivatives to validate its efficiency.
