An example of using the numerical SIR model to fit the COVID-19 data (from U.S. CDC) in the state of Ohio, U.S.A. fitted using the SIR and the SIRV model are both shown. Note that although the SIR model can model an individual wave, a more complex model like SIR SS would better model multiple waves. [21] [22]
The Kermack–McKendrick epidemic model (1927) and the Reed–Frost epidemic model (1928) both describe the relationship between susceptible, infected and immune individuals in a population. The Kermack–McKendrick epidemic model was successful in predicting the behavior of outbreaks very similar to that observed in many recorded epidemics. [7]
Spatial SIR model simulation. Each cell can infect its eight immediate neighbors. Classic epidemic models of disease transmission are described in Compartmental models in epidemiology. Here we discuss the behavior when such models are simulated on a lattice.
SIR SS model that combines the dynamics of social stress with classical epidemic models. [51] Social stress is described by the tools of social physics. Smart Investment of Virus RNA Testing Resources to Enhance Covid-19 Mitigation [52] [53] Youyang Gu COVID model
Only in the special case when the removal rate () and the transmission rate () are constant for all ages can the epidemic dynamics be expressed in terms of the prevalence (), leading to the standard compartmental SIR model. This model only accounts for infection and removal events, which are sufficient to describe a simple epidemic, including ...

is the average number of people infected from one other person. For example, Ebola has an of two, so on average, a person who has Ebola will pass it on to two other people.. In epidemiology, the basic reproduction number, or basic reproductive number (sometimes called basic reproduction ratio or basic reproductive rate), denoted (pronounced R nought or R zero), [1] of an infection is the ...
In epidemiology, the next-generation matrix is used to derive the basic reproduction number, for a compartmental model of the spread of infectious diseases. In population dynamics it is used to compute the basic reproduction number for structured population models. [1] It is also used in multi-type branching models for analogous computations. [2]
