A Model for the Coevolution of Immunity and Immune Evasion in Vector‐Borne Diseases with Implications for the Epidemiology of Malaria

1 May 2003

Abstract excerpt

We describe a model of host-parasite coevolution, where the interaction depends on the investments by the host in its immune response and by the parasite in its ability to suppress (or evade) its host's immune response. We base our model on the interaction between malaria parasites and their mosquito hosts and thus describe the epidemiological dynamics with the Macdonald-Ross equation of malaria epidemiology. The...
