Faculty Mentor: Joyati Debnath
HIV/AIDS a disease which has been around for decades but is nowhere near its end when it comes to getting rid of it. Several Math models have been proposed to suggest how to keep the disease under wraps. This presentation looks at math models which have been used to model the progress of this infection in two countries, South Africa and Cuba. These two countries are opposite ends of the spectrum with one having the highest AIDS prevalence rates and the other having one of the lowest. We look at math models explaining these differences in prevalence rates and make some modifications to these models |
