We analyze an epidemiological model consisting of a linear chain of three cocirculating influenza A strains that provide hosts exposed to a given strain with partial immune cross-protection against other strains. In the extreme case where infection with the middle strain prevents further infections from the other two strains, we reduce the model to a six-dimensional kernel capable of showing self-sustaining oscillations at relatively high levels of cross-protection. Dimensional reduction has been accomplished by a transformation of variables that preserves the eigenvalue responsible for the transition from damped oscillations to limit cycle solutions.
