In this paper, we establish a random epidemic model with double vaccination and spontaneous variation of the virus. Firstly, we prove the global existence and uniqueness of positive solutions for a stochastic epidemic model. Secondly, we prove the threshold R 0 * can be used to control the stochastic dynamics of the model. If R 0 * < 0 , the disease will be extinct with probability 1; whereas if R 0 * > 0 , the disease can almost certainly continue to exist, and there is a unique stable distribution. Finally, we give some numerical examples to verify our theoretical results. Most of the existing studies prove the stochastic dynamics of the model by constructing Lyapunov functions. However, the construction of a Lyapunov function of higher-order models is extremely complex, so this method is not applicable to all models. In this paper, we use the definition method suitable for more models to prove the stationary distribution. Most of the stochastic infectious disease models studied now are second-order or third-order, and cannot accurately describe infectious diseases. In order to solve this kind of problem, this paper adopts a higher price five-order model. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Nowadays, a lot of research papers are concentrating on the diffusion dynamics of infectious diseases, especially the most recent one: COVID-19. The primary goal of this work is to explore the stability analysis of a new version of the S E I R model formulated with incommensurate fractional-order derivatives. In particular, several existence and uniqueness results of the solution of the proposed model are derived by means of the Picard–Lindelöf method. Several stability analysis results related to the disease-free equilibrium of the model are reported in light of computing the so-called basic reproduction number, as well as in view of utilising a certain Lyapunov function. In conclusion, various numerical simulations are performed to confirm the theoretical findings. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper, a hybrid SEIAM model for infectious disease with a continuous age structure is established, where combined dynamic effects of media coverage and multi-staged infected progression on threshold dynamics are discussed. Sufficient conditions for uniform persistence of the solution are studied by using the basic reproduction number. By constructing appropriate Lyapunov functions, the global stability analysis of endemic equilibrium is investigated based on Lyapunov–LaSalle's stability theorem. In order to minimize costs incurred due to applied controls and infectious disease burden, an optimal cost-effective control strategy associated with disease treatment and media coverage is discussed. Numerical simulations are carried out to show consistency with theoretical analysis. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

A stochastic SEIR epidemic model with standard incidence and vertical transmission was developed in this work. The primary goal of this study was to determine whether stochastic environmental disturbances affect dynamic features of the epidemic model. The existence, uniqueness, and boundedness of global positive solutions are stated. A threshold was determined for the extinction of the infectious disease. After that, the existence and uniqueness of an ergodic stationary distribution were verified by determining the correct Lyapunov function. Ultimately, theoretical outcomes of numerical simulations are shown. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

When an individual with confirmed or suspected COVID-19 is quarantined or isolated, the virus can linger for up to an hour in the air. We developed a mathematical model for COVID-19 by adding the point where a person becomes infectious and begins to show symptoms of COVID-19 after being exposed to an infected environment or the surrounding air. It was proven that the proposed stochastic COVID-19 model is biologically well-justifiable by showing the existence, uniqueness, and positivity of the solution. We also explored the model for a unique global solution and derived the necessary conditions for the persistence and extinction of the COVID-19 epidemic. For the persistence of the disease, we observed that R s 0 > 1 , and it was noticed that, for R s < 1 , the COVID-19 infection will tend to eliminate itself from the population. Supplementary graphs representing the solutions of the model were produced to justify the obtained results based on the analysis. This study has the potential to establish a strong theoretical basis for the understanding of infectious diseases that re-emerge frequently. Our work was also intended to provide general techniques for developing the Lyapunov functions that will help the readers explore the stationary distribution of stochastic models having perturbations of the nonlinear type in particular.
