In this paper, we investigate two delayed SIR models with vaccination and a generalized nonlinear incidence and obtain sufficient conditions for eradication and permanence of the disease, respectively. Our results indicate that a larger vaccination rate will lead to the eradication of a disease. Furthermore, theoretical results show that constant vaccination strategy can lead to disease eradication at relatively low values of vaccination than pulse vaccination strategy, which is different from the results in [1]. In addition, numerical simulations indicate that pulse vaccination strategy or a longer infectious period will make a larger fraction of population infected by disease.
