An epidemic model with infector and exposure dependent severity.
A stochastic epidemic model allowing for both mildly and severely infectious individuals is defined, where an individual can become severely infectious directly upon infection or if additionally exposed to infection. It is shown that, assuming a large community, the initial phase of the epidemic may be approximated by a suitable branching process and that the main part of an epidemic that becom...
متن کاملAn Epidemic Model with Exposure-dependent Severities
We consider a stochastic model for the spread of a susceptible–infective–removed (SIR) epidemic among a closed, finite population, in which there are two types of severity of infectious individuals, namely mild and severe. The type of severity depends on the amount of infectious exposure an individual receives, in that infectives are always initially mild but may become severe if additionally e...
متن کاملWho is the infector? Epidemic models with symptomatic and asymptomatic cases
What role do asymptomatically infected individuals play in the transmission dynamics? There are many diseases, such as norovirus and influenza, where some infected hosts show symptoms of the disease while others are asymptomatically infected, i.e. do not show any symptoms. The current paper considers a class of epidemic models following an SEIR (Susceptible → Exposed → Infectious → Recovered) s...
متن کاملON THE STABILITY AND THRESHOLD ANALYSIS OF AN EPIDEMIC MODEL
We consider a mathematical model of epidemic spread in which the population is partitioned into five compartments of susceptible S(t), Infected I(t), Removed R(t), Prevented U(t) and the Controlled W(t). We assume each of the compartments comprises of cohorts of individuals which are identical with respect to the disease status. We derive five systems of equations to represent each of the ...
متن کاملDynamics of an eco-epidemic model with stage structure for predator
The predator-prey model with stage structure for predator is generalized in the context of ecoepidemiology, where the prey population is infected by a microparasite and the predator completely avoids consuming the infected prey. The intraspecific competition of infected prey is considered. All the equilibria are characterized and the existence of a Hopf bifurcation at the coexistence equilibriu...
