Abstract  

In this paper we presented an Ebola Virus Disease fractional order model in the Caputo sense with eighteen compartments. This model considered vaccination, condom use, quarantine, use of treatment drugs and isolation as control measures combined together. We showed that the model has non-negative solution. The stability of the equilibria was discussed and Laplace Adomian Decomposition Method is used to obtain the analytic or approximate solution of the system of non-linear fractional differential equation. It was observed or shown that with the Laplace Adomian Decomposition Method an approximate solution of a fractional order Ebola Virus Disease Model as large as eighteen compartments can be obtained and the result is close to the exact solution.
