Using Data of a Lassa Fever Epidemic in Nigeria: A Mathematical Model Is Shown to Capture the Dynamics and Point to Possible Control Methods
Lassa fever is a deadly viral illness that is endemic in some parts of West Africa, including Nigeria. A deterministic model in the form of a non-linear system of differential equations is developed to analyse the dynamics and possible control of the disease. The model is tested by fitting it to dat...
