into the midst of a new pandemic. In the human body, the virus causes COVID‐19, a disease …

We give a brief outline of some of the important aspects of the development of mathematical
epidemiology.

Final size relations are known for many epidemic models. The derivations are often tedious
and difficult, involving indirect methods to solve a system of integro-differential equations …

During an infectious disease outbreak, biases in the data and complexities of the underlying
dynamics pose significant challenges in mathematically modelling the outbreak and …

Zika virus is a mosquito-borne pathogen that is rapidly spreading across the Americas. Due
