Mathematical analysis of TB model with vaccination and saturated incidence rate (Q2657226)

Summary: The model system of ordinary differential equations considers two classes of latently infected individuals, with different risk of becoming infectious. The system has positive solutions. By constructing a Lyapunov function, it is proved that if the basic reproduction number is less than unity, then the disease-free equilibrium point is globally asymptotically stable. The Routh-Hurwitz criterion is used to prove the local stability of the endemic equilibrium when \(R_0>1\). The model is illustrated using parameters applicable to Ethiopia. A variety of numerical simulations are carried out to illustrate our main results.
