The Mathematics of Infectious Diseases
Abstract
Abstract. Many models for the spread of infectious diseases in populations have been analyzed mathematically and applied to specific diseases. Threshold theorems involving the basic reproduction number [Formula: see text], the contact number [Formula: see text], and the replacement number [Formula: see text] are reviewed for the classic SIR epidemic and endemic models. Similar results with new expressions for [Formula: see text] are obtained for MSEIR and SEIR endemic models with either continuous age or age groups. Values of [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] are estimated for various diseases including measles in Niger and pertussis in the United States. Previous models with age structure, heterogeneity, and spatial structure are surveyed.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
