The Power of Epidemiological Modelling inUnderstanding and Managing Infectious Diseases

Abstract

Epidemiological modelling involves the use of mathematical and statistical models to understand how infectious diseases spread through populations. These models take into account various factors such as the transmission dynamics of the disease, the demographics of the population, and the effectiveness of interventions such as vaccination and social distancing measures. By simulating the spread of the disease under different scenarios, epidemiological models can provide valuable insights into the potential impact of different public health interventions.
