In this paper, a non-autonomous SIRVS epidemic model with time delay and vaccination is investigated. We assume that the vaccinated have a constant immunity period. Some new threshold conditions are obtained. These threshold conditions govern the extinction and permanence of the disease. When the mo

β¦ Synopsis
In this study, we propose a new SVEIR epidemic disease model with time delay, and analyze the dynamic behavior of the model under pulse vaccination. Pulse vaccination is an effective strategy for the elimination of infectious disease. Using the discrete dynamical system determined by the stroboscopic map, we obtain an 'infection-free' periodic solution. We also show that the 'infection-free' periodic solution is globally attractive when some parameters of the model under appropriate conditions. The permanence of the model is investigated analytically. Our results indicate that a large vaccination rate or a short pulse of vaccination or a long latent period is a sufficient condition for the extinction of the disease.
