Abstract

In this paper, we develop a SIRS age-structured model with infective immigrants. We consider a fraction of the juvenile immigrants and a fraction of the adult immigrants to be infective. We calculate the equilibrium points and then check the stability of these points. The reproduction number is calculated using the Next- Generation Method. Mathematical simulation for the model is also conducted using MATLAB. It is observed that an increase in the infective immigrants does not affect the total infective persons in the population. However, there is an increase in the infective population if the rate of immigration is increased. Also, the recovered population increases as the recovery rate increases. It is seen that as the mosquito population increases due to an increase in their birth rate, the infective human population also increases.
