Abstract

The objective of this study is to establish a dynamical model for the spread of Escherichia coli within a community, while also identifying the key parameters influencing its propagation. Through an in-depth analysis of the dynamical system, two equilibrium points were discerned. Furthermore, the numerical solution of the system revealed the significant impact of various parameters on bacterial dissemination. These parameters encompassed the contact rates among healthy individuals, infected persons, and the bacteria itself. Additionally, the level of compliance with sanitation practices among infected individuals played a pivotal role. Gaining insights into the influence of these parameters holds substantial promise for effectively managing both bacterial spread and associated diseases. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
