In this paper, a new SEIR model incorporating the effects of awareness
programs on the epidemic spreading is analyzed. Two types of equilibria
and the basic reproduction number of the model are given, and an
algebraic approach is used to prove the global stability of the
equilibria. Then the sensitivity analysis of the basic reproduction
number and endemic equilibrium is performed. Moreover, the effects of
awareness and media parameters on system dynamics are analyzed. Finally,
we conduct numerical simulation to verify the analytical results.
