Stochastic and Deterministic Models for Rubella Dynamics with Two Doses of Vaccination and Vertical Transmission by Getachew Teshome Tilahun, Tariku Merga Tolasa, Manalebish Debalike Asfaw, Getinet Alemayehu Wole

“…By comparing the two models in terms of the basic reproductive number, extending the deterministic model to a stochastic model can provide more realistic information about the disease, predict its dynamic propagation, and give suggestions for control mechanisms. Numerical simulations and sensitivity analyses were performed to study the influence of fundamental parameters, and the simulation results were displayed graphically using the MATLAB computer software. …”
