Maximum Equilibrium Prevalence of Mosquito-Borne Microparasite Infections in Humans

Figure 2

Some theoretical vector-borne infections and their maximum equilibrium prevalences in humans as a function of the recovery rate, 𝛾_𝐻, and the rate of loss of immune protection, 𝜎_𝐻. The values of the other parameters are: 𝜇_𝐻=4.57×10⁻⁵ days⁻¹, 𝛿_𝐻=0.1 days⁻¹, 𝛼_𝐻=0.01 days⁻¹, and 𝜃_𝐻=0.
