A mathematical model on Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome

Abstract: A mathematical model SEIA (susceptible-exposed-infectious-AIDS infected) with vertical transmission of AIDS epidemic is formulated. AIDS is one of the largest health problems, the world is currently facing. Even with anti-retroviral therapies (ART), many resource-constrained countries are unable to meet the treatment needs of their infected populations. We consider a function of number of AIDS cases in a community with an inverse relation. A stated theorem with proof and an example to illustrate it, is given t… Show more

“…AIDS is labeled by its rapid transmission, slow onset, and high fatality rate. There are three main ways of transmission, that is, sexual intercourse, blood transfusion, and mother‐to‐child transmission [1]. When a person is infected by HIV virus, his initial clinical manifestation is not clear.…”

“…AIDS, acquired immunodeficiency syndrome; HIV, human immunodeficiency virus. Source: Hollingsworth et al (2008) (SEIR) have been widely used to study the HIV/AIDS transmission dynamics (Mahato et al, 2014). Besides, some mathematical models have incorporated the antiretroviral treatment of HIV/AIDS patients (see e.g., Baggaley et al, 2005;Cai et al, 2009;Granich et al, 2009;Okongo et al, 2013;Rong et al, 2007;Waziri et al, 2012).…”

“…Each compartment states the subpopulation of susceptible individuals , exposed , infected , and AIDS infectious . In 2014, Mahato [6] analyzed the mathematical model of HIV/AIDS with vertical transmission. In this study, the disease epidemic model are expressed in four compartments, i.e , with the spread of the disease affected by verti-…”
