Abstract
This paper examines a multigroup epidemic model with variable population size. It is shown that even in the case of proportionate mixing, multiple endemic equilibria are possible. The significance of these results in the study of the dynamics of sexually transmitted diseases and theoretical biology is discussed.Keywords
