Mathematical models can give us
information on number of cases, deaths caused by infectious diseases. In this
study, we aimed to predict the effects of Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic Fever
(CCHF), tuberculosis (TB), measles for Turkey and the efficiency of SI and SIS
mathematical models were defined in the
prediction of the number of infected people for these diseases. In CCHF,
predictions for 2014 gave 0% error in both models. As for TB, SIS model
predicted the exact number and SI model predicted a few more cases than that of
SIS model. Again SI and SIS models gave the exact values for measles. According
to these predictions it seems that CCHF and TB cases will continue to increase
slightly while measles cases will approach zero.
These models can predict exact numbers
for each year, in a long term and in normal conditions (unless there are
external parameters such as natural disaster, war, emigration and terrorism )
they can predict the trend for the diseases and can tell when to disappear.
Therefore, updating data are of importance to achieve the powerful prediction.
