Vertical Transmission in a Two-Strain Model of Dengue Fever

Vertical Transmission in a Two-Strain Model of Dengue Fever

The role of vertical transmission in vectors has rarely been addressed in the study of dengue dynamics and control, in part because it was not considered a critical population-level factor. In this paper, we apply the pioneering modeling ideas of Ross and MacDonald, motivated by the context of the 2...
