In this article, we consider an age-structured SIR endemic model. The model is formulated from the available literature while adding some new assumptions. In order to control the infection, we consider vaccination as a control variable and a control problem is presented for further analysis. The method of weak derivatives and minimizing sequence argument are used for deriving necessary conditions and existence results. The desired criterion is achieved and sample simulations were presented which shows the effectiveness of the control.
