Abstract
The analysis of epidemic diseases based on the Susceptible Infected Susceptible (SIS) epidemic model and its extensions have received wide application over the years. However, recent investigations indicated a threestep transmission phase that is unique for Ebola Virus Disease (EVD) only. This paper examined the existing SIS based epidemic models and its extensions to establish the need for an improved model pertinent for EVD problems. Subsequently, an EVD Susceptible Infected Removed (SIR) based epidemic model was proposed and found relevant for the analysis of EVD problems based on the three-step transmission phases.
