Maximum Equilibrium Prevalence of Mosquito-Borne Microparasite Infections in Humans

To determine the maximum equilibrium prevalence of mosquito-borne microparasitic infections, this paper proposes a general model for vector-borne infections which is flexible enough to comprise the dynamics of a great number of the known diseases transmitted by arthropods. From equilibrium analysis,...
