Abstract: -The paper considered a SIR epidemic model having saturation terms and disease induced death which were neglected in the previous literature. We determine the basic reproduction number of the modified models by Linearization method. We also investigate the effect of disease induced death by providing Numerical Simulation using Runge-kutta of order 4 method. The results show that saturation term has an appreciable effect than disease induced death on the epidemic model.
Keywords: Basic Reproduction Number, Endemic Equilibrium, Disease induced death, Local Stability.
