Epidemic as a natural process [PDF]

open access: yesMathematical Biosciences, 2018
Mathematical epidemiology is a well-recognized discipline to model infectious diseases. It also provides guidance for public health officials to limit outbreaks. Nevertheless, epidemics take societies by surprise every now and then, for example, when the

Approximating the Reed-Frost epidemic process [PDF]

open access: yesStochastic Processes and their Applications, 2004
The paper is concerned with refining two well-known approximations to the Reed–Frost epidemic process. The first is the branching process approximation in the early stages of the epidemic; we extend its range of validity, and sharpen the estimates of the

THEORETICAL BASIS OF EPIDEMIC PROCESS

open access: yesФундаментальная и клиническая медицина, 2018
Here I analyze current knowledge and prospects regarding the concept of epidemic process. Aim. To systematize our understanding on epidemic process, to perform the synopsis, and to denote the prospects in the field. Materials and Methods.

The SIS epidemic model with Markovian switching [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Population systems are often subject to environmental noise. Motivated by Takeuchi et al. (2006), we will discuss in this paper the effect of telegraph noise on the well-known SIS epidemic model.

EPIDEMIC PROCESS IN MODERN CONDITIONS [PDF]

open access: yesActa Biomedica Scientifica, 2012
Nowadays the evolution of epidemic process is under active influence of a new adjusting risk factor - technogenic environmental contamination.

A Note on Observation Processes in Epidemic Models [PDF]

open access: yesBulletin of Mathematical Biology, 2020
Many disease models focus on characterizing the underlying transmission mechanism but make simple, possibly naive assumptions about how infections are reported. In this note, we use a simple deterministic Susceptible-Infected-Removed (SIR) model to compare two common assumptions about disease incidence reports: individuals can report their infection as

Epidemic processes with immunization [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review E, 2003
We study a model of directed percolation (DP) with immunization, i.e. with different probabilities for the first infection and subsequent infections. The immunization effect leads to an additional non-Markovian term in the corresponding field theoretical action. We consider immunization as a small perturbation around the DP fixed point in d<6, where

A holistic view on the COVID-19 epidemic process: smoking cessation behaviour, epidemic process and precautions. [PDF]

open access: yesHealth Syst (Basingstoke)
The aim of this study is to investigate the smoking cessation tendencies of people with different levels of smoking addiction during the COVID-19 epidemic process and to investigate the variables that most affect the risk perception of being Covid-19. Data were collected between November 8 and December 20 2021. A total of 898 participants living in the

Spreading processes in post-epidemic environments [PDF]

open access: yesPhysica A: Statistical Mechanics and its Applications, 2021
We analyze infection spreading processes in a system where only a fraction $p$ of individuals can be affected by disease, while remaining $1-p$ individuals are immune. Such a picture can emerge as a natural consequence of previously terminated epidemic process or arise in formerly vaccinated population.

Strong convergence of an epidemic model with mixing groups [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
We consider an SIR (susceptible → infective → recovered) epidemic in a closed population of size n, in which infection spreads via mixing events, comprising individuals chosen uniformly at random from the population, which occur at the points of a ...
