A mathematical model for endemic malaria with variable human and mosquito populations
Gideon A. Ngwa,W.S Shu +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, conditions for the existence of endemic and disease-free equilibria were derived for a deterministic differential equation model for endemic malaria involving variable human and mosquito populations.
Journal ArticleDOI
On the population dynamics of the malaria vector.
Gideon A. Ngwa,Gideon A. Ngwa +1 more
TL;DR: The present modelling exercise and results show that it is possible to study the population dynamics of disease vectors, and hence oscillatory behaviour as it is often observed in most indirectly transmitted infectious diseases of humans, without recourse to external seasonal forcing.
Journal ArticleDOI
Modelling the dynamics of endemic malaria in growing populations
TL;DR: In this article, a mathematical model for endemic malaria involving variable human and mosquito populations is analyzed and a threshold parameter $R_0$ exists and the disease can persist if and only if $R0$ exceeds $1$.
Journal ArticleDOI
Periodic oscillations and backward bifurcation in a model for the dynamics of malaria transmission
TL;DR: A deterministic ordinary differential equation model that explicitly integrates the demography and life style of the malaria vector and its interaction with the human population is developed and analyzed, and results indicate the existence of nontrivial disease free and endemic steady states.
Journal ArticleDOI
Toward Achieving a Vaccine-Derived Herd Immunity Threshold for COVID-19 in the U.S.
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a mathematical model for assessing the population-level impact of vaccines on curtailing the burden of the COVID-19 pandemic in the U.S. The model stratifies the total population into two subgroups based on whether or not they habitually wear face mask in public.
