dc.description.abstractIn this study, we present a mathematical model that describes the dynamics of reinfection under the assumption that the vaccine-induced immune protection may wane over time. The qualitative analysis reveals that the disease eradication depends on vaccination coverage as well as on vaccine efficacy. Using an appropriate Lyapunov function, we established that the disease-free equilibrium is globally asymptotically stable if the vaccination coverage level exceeds a certain threshold value. We combined homotopy perturbation method (HPM) and Padé approximation technique for this problem. Numerical simulations support our analytical conclusions and illustrate possible behavior scenarios of the model. © 2011 World Scientific Publishing Company.en_US
