Scientists cannot warn people yet with an very accurate statement. Scientists are currently studying seismic activity. The best estimate would be to study seismic gaps, foreshocks, changes in rocks, and more. It might give them a possible location and time of the future earthquake. They hope to soon find ways to warn people, but for now they just have to try their best.
