Schematic representation of the vector-borne infection model. Susceptible vectors from any stage (LS, NpS, AS) can become infected at rate λ v when they feed on infected hosts (HI). Susceptible hosts can become infected at rate λ h following a feeding event by an infected vector. Contact rate is set to 1 year-1 to respect the fact that ticks feed once per year.
