    An SEIS model with \(n\) classes of latent individuals and bilinear incidences is studied. The system exhibits the traditional behavior. For this model the basic reproduction ratio \(\mathcal R_0\) is computed. It is shown that if \(\mathcal R_0\leq 1\), then the disease-free equilibrium is globally asymptotically stable on the nonnegative orthant and if \(\mathcal R_0> 1\), an endemic equilibrium exists and is globally asymptotically stable on the positive orthant.
