Abstract

Highlights: [•] A host-pathogen model of immune response to malaria is considered. [•] Effects of immune time delay on stability are studied. [•] Disease-free equilibrium is proven to be always unstable. [•] Well-posedness of the model prevents the possibility of Hopf bifurcation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
