Effects of Vertical Transmission and Human Contact on Zika Dynamics

Figure 1

The flowchart represents the interactions and transfer of vector-borne disease in both human and vector populations. The host population is split into the following states: susceptible , exposed , infectious , and recovered . The vector population is split into three states: susceptible , exposed , and infectious . The egg population is split into two states: susceptible and infectious . Dashed arrows show the direction of transmission between humans and mosquitoes.
