Abstract: |
The age of infection approach introduced by Kermack and Mckendrick in 1927
gives a unified way of describing and analyzing a variety of epidemic models, including
models with multiple stages, treatment, and heterogeneous mixing. The author gives
a description of the main results for such models, emphasizing the use of the final size
relation to estimate the size of the epidemic. |
