Bovine Tuberculosis (BTB)

Project Description

This study develops a mathematical model to understand the zoonotic transmission dynamics of bovine tuberculosis (bTB) between animals and humans. The model categorizes populations into susceptible, exposed (to animal and human TB), infectious, and recovered classes. It analyzes how bTB spreads through contact with infected animals, consumption of contaminated animal products, and human-to-human transmission. The model also evaluates control strategies such as education, dairy product inspection, treatment, and quarantine to reduce the spread and impact of bTB.
