In this work, we propose a model for heterosexual transmission of HIV/AIDS incorporating a community-wide screening and treatment programme. We will investigate various consistency assumptions about the conservation of heterosexual contacts, which will enable us to reduce this two-sex model to a simpler one-sex formulation. In all cases analytical results will be given with threshold parameters obtained for the persistence of disease, the persistence of total populations, and the persistence of infective populations. By comparing the theoretical results for the different variations of our model, we hope to shed some light on the effectiveness of the prevention and control measures that are needed to deal with the emerging AIDS epidemic in Third World communities with growing populations.
在这项工作中,我们提出了一个包含社区范围筛查和治疗计划的艾滋病毒/艾滋病异性传播模型。我们将研究关于异性接触守恒的各种一致性假设,这将使我们能够把这个双性模型简化为一个更简单的单性模型。在所有情况下,都将给出关于疾病持续存在、总人口持续存在以及感染人群持续存在的阈值参数的分析结果。通过比较我们模型不同变体的理论结果,我们希望能够阐明应对第三世界人口不断增长社区中新兴艾滋病疫情所需的预防和控制措施的有效性。
