Lyapunov functions
We introduce a mode l to describe the evolution of bacterial meningitis epidemics in a non constant population. We derive the value of the basic reproduction number of our model. We analy z e the local and global stability of the disease free and endemic equilibria. We confirm the results by a numerical analysis of the model.
