Diagram of the model accounting for infected red blood cells (iRBCs) in the bloodstream (B) or in concealment (C). Each iRBC releases a brood of S merozoites, which enter circulation where they infect uRBCs. Parasites may migrate between bloodstream and concealment with rates m 1 and m 2, respectively. Furthermore, there is constant net transport of cells into concealment with rate t. The parasites proliferate with rates p 1 and p 2
