Dynamic analysis of a stochastic vector-borne model with direct transmission and media coverage

This paper presents a stochastic vector-borne epidemic model with direct transmission and media coverage. It proves the existence and uniqueness of positive solutions through the construction of a suitable Lyapunov function. Immediately after that, we study the transmission mechanism of vector-borne diseases and give threshold conditions for disease extinction and persistence; in addition we show that the model has a stationary distribution that is determined by a threshold value, i.e., the existence of a stationary distribution is unique under specific conditions. Finally, a stochastic model that describes the dynamics of vector-borne diseases has been numerically simulated to illustrate our mathematical findings.
