Abstract
This work is focused in the mathematical modeling and analysis of the diseases resulting from multiple strains. It is in this context that our aim is to formulate a stochastic model driven by white noise, where, the infection rate of the first and second strains are described by bilinear and non-monotone incidence functions, respectively. The paper begins by examining whether there is a unique global positive solution. After that, the paper moves to the investigation of the disease’s extinction and persistence in mean of the two-strain epidemic disease. Finally, diverse numerical simulations are achieved to validate the theoretical findings.
