I have a query regarding section 3.2: for the equilibrium values for the deterministic model for the 1st pathogen, you don't give a reference, and it is intuitively rather odd that the number of infectives at equilibrium doesn't depend on the transmission rate, so I googled this and came across a different solution for what seems to be the same model - please see http://www.me.rochester.edu/courses/ME406/webexamp6/sir2.pdf (but note that their alpha is your beta, and their beta is your gamma). For the number of infectives in the endemic state, they have your solution minus an additional term ( -u/beta in your notation),
