Abstract
In this paper we study an SEIR epidemic model with saturated recovery rate. A backward bifurcation leading to bistability possibly occurs, and global dynamics are shown by compound matrices and geometric approaches. Numerical simulations are presented to illustrate the results.
► We build an SEIR epidemic model with saturated recovery rate. ► Backward bifurcation leading to bistability possibly occurs. ► Using the approach of Arino et al. [15], we prove the global stability of endemic equilibrium. ► The results show that w should improve medical conditions to control disease.
