Abstract
In this work, a fractional order SIR model with vaccination (
1
) and treatment
(
2
) is formulated to describe measles disease. Firstly, the method of solution
shows that the model possess non-negative solutions as desired in any population
dynamics. The basic reproductive number is established, and a thorough analysis
is carried out to study the stability of the equilibrium points. Numerical solutions
are presented to illustrate the stability analysis using Generalized Euler method.
Graphical results are presented and discussed.
The obtained result showed that the disease will persists within the population
if there is no vaccination (
1
) and treatment (
2
).
