Two models for infectious diseases are considered. One allowing recovery without immunity and the other allowing recovery with full immunity. These models, as usual, are represented by non-linear equations. It is shown that there is a single asymptotically stable equilibrium for diseases with recovery either with no immunity or with full immunity. The equilibrium is the disease-free equilibrium if the contact number is less than one and an endemic equilibrium if the contact number is greater than one.
