The impact of the transmission setting, R 0 , for Model 1 on the temporal trend in the mean worm burden M, with 80% vaccine efficacy on parasite establishment only, i.e. v 1 = 0 , v 2 = 0 , v 3 = 0.80, for (a) p = 70% and (b) p = 85%. The starting value for the mean worm burden is M 0 = 100 per host and the vaccine protection is assumed to be lifelong, i.e. ω = 0
