Dynamics of a waterborne pathogen model under the influence of environmental pollution

作者:

Highlights:

• Introduce environmental pollution as a concept for the first time in modeling the dynamics of waterborne diseases.

• Obtain the basic reproduction number for the proposed model where the impact of pollution can be seen clearly.

• Global stability analysis of endemic equilibrium using compound matrix.

• Numerical simulations are done to understand the impact of environmental pollution on the basic reproduction number and disease dynamics.

• An increase in the stress parameter values causes an immediate rise in infection.

• Successfully demonstrated that environmental pollution plays a key role in a rapid spread of waterborne diseases.
