Abstract

The impact of population dispersal Population dispersal between two cities on the spread of a disease is investigated analytically. A general SIRS model SIRS model is presented that tracks the place of residence of individuals, allowing for different movement rates of local residents and visitors in a city. Provided the basic reproduction number Basic reproduction number is greater than one, we demonstrate in our model that increasing the travel volumes of some infected groups may result in the extinction of a disease, even though the disease cannot be eliminated in each city when the cities are isolated.
