We investigate an epidemic non-linear reaction-diffusion system with two free boundaries. A free boundary is introduced to describe the expanding front of the infectious environment. A priori estimates of the required functions are established, which are necessary for the correctness and global solvability of the problem. We get sufficient conditions for the spread or disappearance of the disease. It has been proven that with a base reproductive number the disease disappears in the long term if the initial values and the initial area are sufficiently small.
