Optimal Control Analysis of Onchocerciasis through Multiple Integrated Control Measures

Abstract excerpt

Onchocerciasis also known as River Blindness, is a vector-borne disease caused by Onchocerca volvulus and transmitted by infected female blackflies. It affects millions of people globally, with the greatest impact in sub-Saharan Africa. In this study, we develop a deterministic mathematical model that integrates multiple control measures, including Sterile Insect Technique (SIT), mechanical control, chemical cont...
