On the cholera therapy model, that incorporates Vibrio cholerae environmental reservoir
Author(s): Okwoyo James
Abstract: Cholera caused by toxigenic Vibrio cholerae is a major public health problem in developing countries, where outbreaks occur in regular seasonal patterns and are particularly associated with poverty and poor sanitation. The T V. Cholerae can thrive in marine environments for several months, alongside zooplanktons and other marine organisms. The infectious agent can assume a viable state, becoming undetectable to traditional microbiological techniques. The aquatic environment may be an habitat to the harmful V. Cholerae in affected regions. The Mathematical model incorporates important determinants of the V. Cholerae dynamics. Firstly, we study a basic S-I-R model together with an oceanic taxon of V. Cholerae. We aimed at exploring the purpose of the reservoir on the persistence of endemic cholera as well as the definition of minimum conditions for the development of epidemic and endemic cholera. We explore Mathematical model for the endemic and epidemic cholera. Thereafter verification within three suggested populations to estimate its characteristics in terms of; no disease or free, epidemic and endemic cases. We analyzed the proposed model fully by considering possible causes of endemic oscillations.
