Numerical Simulation of a Four Serotype Dengue Fever Model

Dengue fever is a vector-borne virus infection of the tropics and subtropics. It is transmitted by Asian tiger mosquitos and comes with four serotypes. These mosquitos are currently (re-)invading Europe, established Asian tiger mosquito populations are already known e.g. in a few German cities. Dengue fever cases were imported into Germany in pre-covid times usually by airtravel, but some autochthonous cases in Europe are already known. We present numerical simulations and optimal control results of a new four serotype dengue fever model including an imperfect vaccination of seropositive humans.
