Stability analysis of the mathematical modelling of transmission and control of rabies incorporating vaccination class

Abstract

Rabies is a viral disease of nervous system that is often transmitted to human beings through the bite or scratch of rabid animals. The uprising of in-security globally has forced several people to get dogs in their houses. In this paper the mathematical model of rabies transmission and control was formulated by incorporating vaccination class. The Disease Free Equilibrium (DFE) state of the model was obtain and used to compute the basic reproduction number R₀ . Local stability analysis of the DFE was carried out using Jacobian Matrix techniques. The DFE is locally asymptotically stable if R₀ <1.
