Abstract: A stochastically perturbed SIRS epidemic model with two viruses is formulated to investigate the effect of intensities of white noise on each population. We prove that the stochastic model has a non-negative solution that belongs to a positively invariant set. By applying a novel combination of suitable Lyapunov functions, we obtain that the asymptotic behaviour of the stochastic model holds a disease-free equilibrium if R0≤1 and investigate pth-moment exponential stability. Then we derive the sufficient conditions for the solution of the stochastic model that fluctuates around the endemic equilibrium if R0>1. Furthermore, the suitable conditions for the extinction and persistence of the diseases are established due to intensities of white noise in large. Finally, the theoretical results are illustrated by numerical investigations.
