Abstract :
We are concerned by emergency system deficiencies and information absence about vectors that exist in the entire world, where we are vulnerable to the diseases due to natural disasters. Here, we propose a way to begin creating a strong system; making multiples models of human-vector interaction, some of them with control, and we show the helpfulness for improvement of the emergency squads and their actions, in order to save more lives. Besides, we mention some advantages due to the use of computational mathematics. Finally we discuss the relevance of the analysis and some future applications.
