Abstract EN

A transmission model of malaria with two delays is formulated.

We calculate the basic reproduction number R0 for the model.

It is shown that the basic reproduction number is a decreasing function of two time delays.

The existence of the equilibria is studied.

Our results suggest that the model undergoes a backward bifurcation, which implies that bringing the basic reproduction number below 1 is not enough to eradicate malaria.
