📄 Abstract
Antimalarial drug resistance has become one of the biggest threats to efforts employed in the tackle and control of malaria in endemic countries. This study presents and analyzes a new deterministic model for the co-infection of drug-resistant malaria and typhoid fever transmission dynamics. The model includes new compartments for individuals dually infected with drug resistant malaria and typhoid fever and allows for disease transmission by those individuals. The model is observed to exhibit the phenomenon of backward bifurcation when the associated reproduction number is less than unity, R0 < 1.
