An Extended Mathematical Model For SIV To HIV From Chimpanzees To Human

The purpose of this study is to investigate the transmission dynamics of SIV=HIV in humans, in the presence of chimpanzees that harbor Simian Immunodeficiency Virus (SIV) and to suggest some control strategies in sub-Saharan Africa. SIV was believed by some scientists to have ignited the emergence o...
