Abstract

AIDS is one of the most threatening diseases for human being that is caused by a virus named HIV. Here the reduction of the death rate after infected by AIDS has been discussed. A mathematical model of HIV has been formulated. Then its positivity and boundedness has been investigated. It has been shown that it is possible to minimize the mortality rate by providing the treatment to the HIV infected people. Moreover, the control of the transfer rate from the infected class to the AIDS class reduces the disease rate. The increasing of the transfer rate from the infected class to the treated class also reduces the mortality rate.
