Abstract

In this paper the global dynamics of susceptible-infected-recovered-susceptible (SIRS) epidemic model with saturated incidence rate and saturated treatment function is studied. Firstly, the basic reproduction number $R_0$ is calculated and the existence of the disease-free and positive equilibria is showed. In addition, local stability of the equilibria is investigated. Then, sufficient conditions are achieved for global stability of disease-free and endemic equilibria. Finally, the numerical examples are presented to validate the theoretical results.
