Sex-biased prevalence in infections with heterosexual, direct, and vector-mediated transmission: a theoretical analysis
Three deterministic Kermack-McKendrick-type models for studying the transmission dynamics of an infection in a two-sex closed population are analyzed here. In each model it is assumed that infection can be transmitted through heterosexual contacts, and that there is a higher probability of transmiss...
