Cholera Models with Hyperinfectivity and Temporary Immunity

A mathematical model for cholera is formulated that incorporates hyperinfectivity and temporary immunity using distributed delays. The basic reproduction number is defined and proved to give a sharp threshold that determines whether or not the disease dies out. The case of constant temporary immunit...
