    Mathematical model for the control of infectious disease
    (African Journals Online (AJOL), 2018-05-03) O. J. Peter; O. B. Akinduko; F. A. Oguntolu; C. Y. Ishola
    We proposed a mathematical model of infectious disease dynamics. The model is a system of first order ordinary differential equations. The population is partitioned into three compartments of Susceptible S(t) , Infected I(t) and Recovered R(t). Two equilibria states exist: the disease-free equilibrium which is locally asymptotically stable if Ro < 1 and unstable if Ro > 1. Numerical simulation of the model shows that an increase in vaccination leads to low disease prevalence in a population.
