MATHEMATICAL MODELLING ON THE TRANSMISSION DYNAMICS OF ZIKA VIRUS TRANSMISSION DYNAMICS OF ZIKA VIRUS
Main Article Content
Abstract
Zika virus is a mosquito-borne virus that is commonly transmitted by mosquitoes of the Aedes genus. The transmission dynamics of the Zika virus in males, females, and children are comparatively studied. The study aims to analyze and find the population that affects more due to Zika transmission. This paper deals with the non-linear Mathematical model of the dynamics of Zika virus transmission. The reproductive ratio of the model is calculated to analyze the spread of the Zika virus. The equilibrium and the stability of the model are found and analyzed analytically. Numerical simulation is carried out to support the analytical results and to estimate the most affecting population in different equilibria.
