Abstract

More realistic human-mosquito population mathematical model in which re-infected asymptomatic humans are considered is presented. Six possible time-scale of events for model transition from non-endemic to endemic state are analyzed. Results show that the buildup of the latent asymptomatic humans at steady state is the main dynamics of malaria in the endemic region. This become evident in the time scale of about 1-2 weeks and thus influences the mode of infection in the malaria transmission analysis.
