A Mathematical Model for Coinfection of Listeriosis and Anthrax Diseases

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, 2018
Listeriosis and Anthrax are fatal zoonotic diseases caused by Listeria monocytogene and Bacillus Anthracis, respectively. In this paper, we proposed and analysed a compartmental Listeriosis-Anthrax coinfection model describing the transmission dynamics ...
