Abstract

ABSTRACTAnthrax is an infectious disease that caused by the Bacillus anthracis bacteria. The disease attacks animals such as cows in acute and preacute stage. Anthrax is a zoonotic disease that can be transmitted to humans through three types of media that are skin, digestive and respiratory tracts. To overcome the high death risk, treatment and vaccination of the period 6 – 12 months are conducted. The aims of this study is developing a mathematical model of anthrax spread in animal populations with vaccination treatment. The model is also consider human populations, such that the SIRSV model (susceptible, Infected, Recovered, susceptible and Vaccine) is used for animal population and SI model (susceptible, Infected) is used for human population. The stability of model is analyzed at the critical points by linearization method. The free-disease unstable critical point and the stable endemic critical point are derived. The simulation shous that the number of infected animal and infected human population is not significantly different and indicates that the vaccination treatment could overcome the spread of anthrax succesfully.Keywords : Anthrax, Critical Point Endemic, Critical Point Non Disease, linearization method, Mathematical Models
