Table 5.

Endemic equilibrium (eh, ih, rh, ev, iv) and properties of the first peak: maximum proportion humans infected (ih,P), time to ih,P (Tih,P), maximum proportion of mosquitoes infected (iv,P), time to iv,P (Tiv,P), maximum proportion of immune humans (rh,P), and time to rh,P (Trh,P) for dengue and chikungunya. The proportions written as percent of the total populations and the time is in years. DENV(A. aegypti) and CHIK-R(A. albopictus) reach the epidemic peak faster (Tih,P) and result in more total infections (rh,P) by the end of an outbreak. They also result in a greater percent of immune hosts at the endemic state (rh).
