dc.description.abstractA mathematical model is formulated for the transmission and spread of cholera in a heterogeneous host population that consists of several patches of homogeneous host populations sharing a common water source. The basic reproduction number ℛ0 is derived and shown to determine whether or not cholera dies out. Explicit formulas are derived for target/type reproduction numbers that measure the control strategies required to eradicate cholera from all patches.en_US

dc.description.sponsorshipThis research originated during a Research in Teamworkshop at the Banff International Research Station for Mathematical Innovation and Discovery (BIRS) on ‘Cholera Dynamics on Community Networks.’ Both authors thank Dr Joseph H. Tien for helpful discussions, and two anonymous reviewers for helpful comments. This work was partially supported by the Natural Science and Engineering Research Council of Canada (NSERC) through a Discovery Grant (PvdD), and by the University of Central Florida through a start-up fund (ZS).en_US
