Abstract
Nipah virus (NiV) has drawn attention as an emerging infectious disease in Southeast Asia. It has become one of the most alarming threats of the public health mainly due to its periodic outbreaks and the high mortality rate. In the present work, the transmission of NiV using SEI-model is analysed through the system of non-linear differential equations. In addition, the reproduction number is attained which signifies the intensity of NiV outbreak. The local and global stability of equilibrium points is studied. Numerical simulation illustrates the behavior and flow of NiV infections in different compartments.
Highlights
Mathematical modeling has become an important tool for analysing the spread as well as control of infectious diseases
The reproduction number is attained which signifies the intensity of Nipah virus (NiV) outbreak
Antibodies versus NiV have identified in fruit bats wherever they have tested including Cambodia, Thailand, India, Bangladesh and Madagascar [12], [16], [8], [9], [10]
Summary
Mathematical modeling has become an important tool for analysing the spread as well as control of infectious diseases. Nipah virus (NiV), belongs to the genus Henipavirus, a new class of virus in the Paramyxoviridae family, has drawn attention as an emerging zoonotic virus in southeast and south-Asian region This emerging infectious disease has become one of the most alarming threats of the public health mainly due to its periodic outbreaks and the high mortality rate. Biswas have investigated the disease propagation and control strategy of NiV infections using SIR type mathematical model [4]. Mathematical model for transmission of NiV is been formulated using system of non-linear ordinary differential equations in second section. Local and global stability of the equilibrium points is been calculated in section four and analysis is completed by discussing numerical simulation
