Model diagram representing the dynamics of malaria transmission.
The compartments represent the following epidemiological classes: (S) completely susceptible individuals, either newborns, or those who have lost clinical immunity; (I1) clinical malaria cases resulting from infection of completely susceptible individuals; (R) individuals that have recovered from any infection and are clinically immune; (I2) asymptomatic malaria cases resulting from infection of clinically immune individuals.
