Document: Epidemiologists should provide accurate predictions that will prepare African governments and political leaders with information that will guide them design control measures at different health centers and regional and national levels. Lastly, there is a lot that we can learn from the Ebola success story to save Africa especially by community engagement. The WHO noted the lack of capacity to contain the West Africa Ebola outbreak in 2014, making it difficult to implement infection prevention procedures [14] . We expect the same barriers from the community as noted in the recent Ebola hemorrhagic fever outbreak in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), such as mistrust of response teams, beliefs that the virus was fabricated, and noncompliant intentions such as hiding from health authorities with discourse [15] . Behaviors like hand shaking, social gatherings, breach of quarantine rules, and contact with the dead may see the number of cases increase in Sub-Saharan Africa.
