Abstract:
In this paper, we formulate and study a new fractional-order SIS epidemic model with fear effect of an infectious disease and treatment control. The existence and uniqueness, nonnegativity and finiteness of the system solutions for the proposed model have been analysed. All equilibria of the model system are found, and their local and also global stability analyses are examined. Conditions for fractional backward and fractional Hopf bifurcation are also analysed. We study how the disease control parameter, level of fear and fractional order play a role in the stability of equilibria and Hopf bifurcation. Further, we have established our analytical results through several numerical simulations.

When a drug is administered through a constant intravenous infusion and eliminated via nonlinear pharmacokinetics, it follows zero-order input. For example, oral drugs undergo first-order absorption upon administration and are eliminated through nonlinear pharmacokinetics.
