J Math Biol 57:557-93. 2008..The impact of antiretroviral therapy on the incidence of HIV is unclear and depends on the extent to which it reduces sexual transmission. However, our analysis suggests that it will greatly reduce the TB notification rate...
On the basic reproduction number R0 in sexual activity models for HIV/AIDS epidemics: example from Yunnan, ChinaNicolas Bacaer

J Math Biol 53:421-36. 2006..This R (0) is estimated numerically for the epidemic in Chichaoua; approximately 1.94. The model suggests that the epidemic could be stopped if the vector population were reduced by a factor approximately 3.76...
