摘要：In this paper, we study the qualitative behavior of a discrete-time host-pathogen model for spread of an infectious disease with permanent immunity. The time-step is equal to the duration of the infectious phase. Moreover, the local asymptotic stability, the global behavior of unique positive equilibrium point, and the rate of convergence of positive solutions is discussed. Some numerical examples are given to verify our theoretical results. MSC:39A10, 40A05.
