Abstract

We introduce a fractional-order model for the coinfection of the immunodeficiency virus and tuberculosis, in the presence of drug resistant tuberculosis strains and treatment for both diseases. We compute the reproduction number of the model. Numerical simulations show the different dynamics of the model for variation of relevant parameters. Moreover, the order of the fractional derivative plays an important role in the severity of the epidemics.
