Parameters

Description

η

Mortality rate in every compartment assumed to be equal to the rate of newborn in the population [9]

β

Rate at which the cross-immune population becomes susceptible again

ξ

Contact/transmission rate

σ

The average reinfection probability of a cross-immune individual

α

Recovery rate of the infected population

γ

Rate at which the recovered population becomes the cross-immune population and moves from total to partial immunity
