Assessing the Efficiency of \textit{Cordon Sanitaire} as a Control Strategy of Ebola [PDF]
arXiv, 2015 We formulate a two-patch mathematical model for Ebola Virus Disease dynamics in order to evaluate the effectiveness of \textit{cordons sanitaires}, mandatory movement restrictions between communities while exploring their role on disease dynamics and final epidemic size.

Advances in Designing and Developing Vaccines, Drugs, and Therapies to Counter Ebola Virus
Frontiers in Immunology, 2018 Ebola virus (EBOV), a member of the family Filoviridae, is responsible for causing Ebola virus disease (EVD) (formerly named Ebola hemorrhagic fever). This is a severe, often fatal illness with mortality rates varying from 50 to 90% in humans.

On the Quarantine Period for Ebola Virus
PLoS Currents, 2014 21 days has been regarded as the appropriate quarantine period for holding individuals potentially exposed to Ebola Virus (EV) to reduce risk of contagion. There does not appear to be a systematic discussion of the basis for this period.The prior estimates for incubation time to EV were examined, along with data on the first 9 months of the current ...

The Western Africa Ebola virus disease epidemic exhibits both global exponential and local polynomial growth rates [PDF]
PLOS Currents Outbreaks. 2015 Jan 21. Edition 1, 2014 Background: While many infectious disease epidemics are initially characterized by an exponential growth in time, we show that district-level Ebola virus disease (EVD) outbreaks in West Africa follow slower polynomial-based growth kinetics over several generations of the disease.

Ebola impact and quarantine in a network model [PDF]
arXiv, 2015 Much effort has been directed towards using mathematical models to understand and predict contagious disease, in particular Ebola outbreaks. Classical SIR (susceptible-infected-recovered) compartmental models capture well the dynamics of the outbreak in certain communities, and accurately describe the differences between them based on a variety of ...
