Stability analysis of a disease resistance SEIRS model with nonlinear incidence rate
Abstract In this paper, we study a new SEIRS epidemic model describing nonlinear incidence with a more general form and the transmission of influenza virus with disease resistance. The basic reproductive number ℜ0 $\Re_{0}$ is obtained by using the method of next generating matrix. If ℜ0<1 $\Re_{...

Summary: | Abstract In this paper, we study a new SEIRS epidemic model describing nonlinear incidence with a more general form and the transmission of influenza virus with disease resistance. The basic reproductive number ℜ0 $\Re_{0}$ is obtained by using the method of next generating matrix. If ℜ0<1 $\Re_{0}<1$, the disease-free equilibrium is globally asymptotically stable, and if ℜ0>1 $\Re_{0}>1$, by using the geometric method, we obtain some sufficient conditions for global stability of the unique endemic equilibrium. Finally, numerical simulations are provided to support our theoretical results. |
