Co-infection Model Formulation to Evaluate the Transmission Dynamics of Malaria and Dengue Fever Virus
OLUWAFEMI, TJ; AKINWANDE, NI; OLAYIWOLA, RO; KUTA, AF & AZUABA, E
Abstract
A mathematical model of the co-infection dynamics of malaria and dengue fever condition is
formulated. In this work, the Basic reduction number is computed using the next generation method. The diseasefree equilibrium (DFE) point of the model is obtained. The local and global stability of the disease-free
equilibrium point of the model is established. The result show that the DFE is locally asymptotically stable if the
basic reproduction number is less than one but may not be globally asymptotically stable.
