Abstract
Transmission dynamics of the spread of Zika virus is studied in population sizes of human beings and mosquitoes. Transmission of zika virus from pregnant mother to new born child is also considered. We define the threshold number and explore the significance of equilibrium points in this type of epidemic disease. Global stability under different threshold conditions is proved. Numerical simulations are carried out to establish the analytical results. The simulation result will help us to understand the possible transmission rate of the disease in both human and mosquito population and also explore the possibility of eradication of the disease.
