Small simulations of model system (1) showing the effects of increasing the proportion of individuals who develop drug resistance through high mutation rate of the bacteria within their body ( ) on the dynamics of (a) individuals infected with drug sensitive strain , (b) individuals infected with drug resistant strain , (c) susceptible individuals over a period of 50 days. The rest of the parameters are fixed on their baseline values from Table 1, and the following assumed initial conditions , , and .
