Abstract
In this paper, the approximate solution of avian-human influenza epidemic model is obtained by a reliable algorithm based on an adaptation of the standard variational iteration method (VIM), which is called the multi-stage variational iteration method (MVIM). A comparison between MVIM and the Runge-Kutta method (RK-method) reveals that the proposed technique is a promising tool to solve the considered problem.
