Abstract.
In this paper we present a mathematical model to study the dynamics of the meningitis disease.
Studies show that this disease can kill in a few hours (even with treatment) a percentage of
10% of the infected population, and 20% of the survivors will have disabilities.
We used an SVCIRS model in order to understand the eects of a vaccine in a small community
of human population. In this model we distinguished between the recovered with disabilities
and the recovered without disabilities. The model is governed by a set of six ordinary dif-
ferential equations. We used mathematical analysis to study the eects of the vaccine. We
presented some numerical results for dierent scenarios. Our model suggest that the disease
can be controlled if the vaccine uptake rate is high.
