    The authors deal with a mathematical model for infectious disease epidemics with behaviour change and treatment. According to the stability analysis of the system, they point out that behaviour modification by the population has a significant impact on the dynamics of the disease. In addition, an optimal control theory is applied to propose the best possible combination of efforts in controlling the disease.
