Abstract
Dengue fever is a disease that occurs every year and this is always a big concern for the community when entering the rainy season. Based on data from the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Indonesia, the age group that is susceptible to dengue is less than 15 years old. At the time of the COVID-19 pandemic, dengue fever has less attention from the public and the government even in 2020, there are 160,000 cases from January through March with 100 deaths. In this study, the author interested to construct a mathematical model for dengue transmission by involving the early-age group in the population with temporary immunity. The analysis will begin by looking at the transmission process between vectors (Aedes aegypti mosquitoes) and humans, analysing the equilibrium points, basic reproduction number, and sensitivity analysis of parameters, and making simulation.
