Abstract
Four (4) deterministic epidemiological
model of (S, E, I, R) is studied to gain insight into
the efficacy and compliance of condom on the
dynamical spread of Gonorrhea disease. Positivity
solution is analyzed for mathematical and
epidemiological posedness of the model. Local and
global stability of the model are explored for
disease-free and endemic equilibria. Sensitivity
analysis is performed on the basic reproduction
number to check the importance of each parameter
on the transmission of gonorrhea disease.
Numerical simulation is analyzed by MAPLE 18
software using embedded Runge-Kutta method of
order (4) which shows the effect of condom on the
prevention/control of Gonorrhea disease.
