摘要: Abstract A general mathematical model is proposed to study the impact of group mixing in a heterogeneous host population on spread disease that confers temporary immunity upon recovery. The contains distribution functions account for probabilities individuals remain recovered class after For this model, basic reproduction number R 0 identified. It shown if 1 , then dies out sense free equilibrium globally asymptotically stable; whereas > becomes unstable. In latter case, depending and strengths, either persists at constant endemic level or exhibits sustained oscillatory behavior.
