An Ebola virus disease model with fear and environmental transmission dynamics

• Due to its high case fatality rate, EVD undoubtedly instills fear in the inhabitants of any affected community. • We propose an Ebola model with fear, which considers the pathogens in the environment to quantify the effect of fear and environmental transmission on the EVD disease dynamics. • The f...

description • Due to its high case fatality rate, EVD undoubtedly instills fear in the inhabitants of any affected community. • We propose an Ebola model with fear, which considers the pathogens in the environment to quantify the effect of fear and environmental transmission on the EVD disease dynamics. • The fear of death from Ebola is proportional to the Ebola disease transmission rate. • At high levels of fear, the number of EVD cases decrease.
