The impact of sexually abstaining groups on persistence of sexually transmitted infections in populations with ephemeral pair bonds

Original language description

In this paper we compose and analyze a logistic two-sex population model in which individuals form pairs just to mate and later move on to sexually abstaining groups, and use this model to study the impact of sexually abstaining groups on persistence ofa benign sexually transmitted infection (STI) in populations with such ephemeral pair bonds. The presence of sexually abstaining groups cannot prevent an STI from invasion or eliminate it when already present if the transition rates to the sexually abstaining groups are independent of the infection status of individuals. On the other hand, if they depend on that status, the presence of sexually abstaining groups can prevent an STI from invasion or eliminate it when present.
