    Mathematical model for the control of lymphatic filariasis transmission dynamics

    In this paper, a mathematical model for the transmission dynamics of lymphatic filariasis is presented by incorporating the infected without symptom, the infected with symptom and treatment compartments. The model is shown to have two equilibrium states: the disease-free equilibrium (DFE) and the endemic equilibrium states. An explicit formula for the effective reproduction number was obtained in terms of the demographic and epidemiological parameters of the model. Using the method of linearization, the disease-free equilibrium state was found to be locally asymptotically stable if the basic reproduction number is less than unity. By constructing a suitable Lyapunov function, the disease-free equilibrium state was found to be globally asymptotically stable. This means that lymphatic filariasis could be put under control in a population when the effective reproduction number is less than one. The endemic equilibrium state was found to be locally asymptotically stable. By constructing yet another Lyapunov function, the endemic equilibrium state was found to be globally asymptotically stable under certain conditions. Sensitivity analysis was carried out on the effective reproduction number, the most sensitive parameters were the treatment rate of human population and the infected rate of human population. Results from the simulation carried out showed that treatment level coverage of human population should target a success rate of 75% for LF to be under control in the population.

    Mathematical modelling for the transmission dynamics of Rift Valley fever virus with human host
    (Universitas Negeri Gorontalo, 2022-06-28) Festus Abiodun Oguntolu; Deborah W. Yavalah; Collins F. Udom; Olumuyiwa James Peter; Kayode Oshinubi
    Rift Valley Fever (RVF) is a viral zoonosis spread primarily by mosquitos that primarily affects livestock but has the potential to affect humans. Because of its potential to spread quickly and become an epidemic, it has become a public concern. In this article, the transmission dynamics of RVF with mosquito, livestock and human host using a compartmental model is studied and analyzed. The basic reproduction number R0 is computed using next generation matrix and the disease-free equilibrium state is found to be locally asymptotically stable if R0 < 1 which implies that rift valley fever could be put under control in a population where the reproduction number is less than 1. The numerical simulations give insightful results to further explore the dynamics of the disease based on the effect of three interventions; efficacy of vaccination, culling of livestock and trapping of mosquitoes introduced in the model.
