Description
Summary:—An analytical review of mathematical models of the epizootic process in natural foci of obligate vector-borne infections, the causative agents of which are ecologically related to ixodic ticks and are transmitted by them, is presented. A diverse range of models has been reduced to the basic forms used to model the dynamics of the vector population and the intensity of the circulation of the causative agent. They are discussed with concrete examples. The advantages and disadvantages of different types of models associated with the main parameters used during modeling are discussed.
