  • Abstract
    In this paper we study a fractional order model for HIV and TB coinfection. We consider vertical transmission for HIV and treatment for both diseases. We analyze numerical results of the proposed model for different values of the order of the fractional derivative. The results are in agreement with the integer order model and reveal that we can extend the dynamical evolution up to new types of transients.
