Preventing Foodborne Illness: Cyclosporiasis cayetanensis by Keith R. Schneider, Rachael Silverberg, Susie Richardson, Renée M. Goodrich-Schneider

“… Cyclospora cayetanensis is a microscopic, spore-forming, intestinal protozoan parasite and a known cause of the gastrointestinal infection cyclosporiasis, often referred to as “traveler’s diarrhea” for its prevalence among visitors to regions where the species is endemic. These organisms have a protective covering that makes them resistant to disinfectants and that gives Cyclospora the ability to survive outside of hosts for extended periods. …”

Dynamics of epidemic models with asymptomatic infection and seasonal succession by Yilei Tang, Dongmei Xiao, Weinian Zhang, Di Zhu

“…It is shown that the model has only a disease-free equilibrium which is globally stable if $\mathcal{R}_0≤ 1$, and as $\mathcal{R}_0 \gt 1$ the disease-free equilibrium is unstable and there is an endemic equilibrium, which is globally stable if the recovering rates of asymptomatic infectives and symptomatic infectives are close. …”
