Zusammenfassung
Die Stabilität endemischer Zustände bei Infektionen mit dem Parainfluenza Virus Typ 1 wird an einem mathematischen Modell untersucht. Bei jahreszeitlichen Schwankungen der Kontaktrate können Inzidenzmuster mit zweijährigem Zyklus auftreten, wenn die Dauer von Infektiosität und Immunität in einem bestimmten ‘Parameterfenster’ liegt.
Summary
The stability of endemic states due to parinfluenza virus type 1-infections is studied by a mathematical model. Taking into account seasonal periodicity in the contact rate, conditions are analysed for biannual incidence patterns, if the duration of infectiosity and immunity lies within a given ‘parameter window’.
