SANCHEZ, Fabio; ARROYO-ESQUIVEL, Jorge  e  VASQUEZ, Paola. Transmission dynamics of dengue in Costa Rica: the role of hospitalizations. Rev. Mat [online]. 2020, vol.27, n.1, pp.241-266. ISSN 1409-2433.  http://dx.doi.org/10.15517/rmta.v27i1.39977.

For decades, dengue virus has caused major problems for public health officials in tropical and subtropical countries around the world. We construct a compartmental model that includes the role of hospitalized individuals in the transmission dynamics of dengue in Costa Rica. The basic reproductive number, ℛ 0 , is computed, as well as a sensitivity analysis on ℛ 0 parameters. The global stability of the disease-free equilibrium is established. Numerical simulations under specific parameter scenarios are performed to determine optimal prevention/control strategies.
