Nipah virus, which naturally resides in animals, particularly fruit bats, spreads to humans via intermediate hosts like pigs. This research work highlights the significance of including this pathway in mathematical models for several crucial reasons. Firstly, it aids in comprehending zoonotic transmission, essential for designing effective control strategies. Secondly, it facilitates early detection and intervention by encompassing bats, pigs, and humans in the model. Monitoring factors such as bat population dynamics, pig infections, and human exposure enables timely intervention to prevent or mitigate outbreaks. Moreover, the complexity of Nipah virus transmission involving multiple species underscores the need for multifaceted control measures. We present a detailed mathematical model for Nipah vir..... 328 hits |
