Stochastic permanence of an SIQS epidemic model with saturated incidence and independent random perturbations

Abstract

This article discusses a stochastic SIQS epidemic model with saturated incidence. We assume that random perturbations always fluctuate at the endemic equilibrium. The existence of a global positive solution is obtained by constructing a suitable Lyapunov function. Under some suitable conditions, we derive the stochastic boundedness and stochastic permanence of the solutions of a stochastic SIQS model. Some numerical simulations are carried out to check our results.
