It is observed that media coverage does not affect the effective reproduction number, but it helps to mitigate disease burden by lowering the number of infectious individuals at the endemic steady state and also lowering the infection peak. The primary goal of this article is to theoretically study the impact of use of NPIs stimulated by media coverage, quarantine and isolation for an infectious disease in a community with pre-existing immunity. In this section, we will formulate an epidemic model incorporating quarantine, isolation, use of nonpharmaceutical interventions stimulated by media coverage in presence of pre-existing cross-protective immunity. An SEQIHRS epidemic model for the transmission dynamics of an infectious disease is proposed and rigorous mathematical analysis is carried out to get insight into the qualitative dynamics in presence of pre-existing immunity and the use of NPIs stimulated by media coverage. ./cache/cord-296891-23xkaa19.txt ./txt/cord-296891-23xkaa19.txt
