  16. Linear SIR: Malthusian growth • If , at the beginning the number of cases increases exponentially, with exponent • If , the number of cases decreases and the epidemic “dies out” • is called Malthusian parameter, or real-time growth rate

  17. Key epidemiological quantities Can we provide summary information of the full dynamics? • Real-time growth rate • Threshold condition • Epidemic final size • ...

  18. Threshold condition • A large epidemic occurs if and only if • For roughly 50 years, the same condition was expressed by mathematicians as where was called relative removal rate • During the ’80s (HIV epidemic), biologists and epidemiologists stepped in, interpreting it as: • Clearly it is the same thing, but...

  19. Basic reproduction number R0 • Called basic reproduction number • Defined as the average number of new cases, generated by a single case, throughout the infectious period, in a totally susceptible population • An epidemic occurs if and only if Average number of new cases generate by a single case, per unit of time, in a totally susceptible population = = Average duration of the infectious period

  26. Basic SIR and SIS Key epidemiological quantities Relaxing basic assumptions Introduction

  27. Relaxing assumptions • Deterministic model: • Make it stochastic • Constant infectivity and recovery rate: • Constant infectivity, any duration of infectious period • Time-varying infectivity • Homogeneous mixing: • Heterogeneous mixing • Households models • Network models

  29. Markovian stochastic SIRmodel • Population of individuals • Upon infection, each case : • remains infectious for a duration , , • makes infectious contacts with each person in the population at the points of a homogeneous Poisson process with rate • Contacted individuals, if susceptible, become infected • Recovered individuals are immune to further infection

  30. Effects of stochasticity • Random delays • But when the epidemic takes off, a deterministic approximation is very reasonable (CLT) • Early extinction

  31. Branching process approximation • Follow the epidemic in generations: • number of infected cases in generation (pop. size ) • For every fixed , where is the -th generation of a simple Galton-Watson branching process (BP) • Let be the random number of children of an individual in the BP, and let be the offspring distribution. • Define • We have “linearised” the early phase of the epidemic • Pellis, Ball & Trapman(2012)

  32. Properties of R0 - deterministic • Threshold parameter: • If , only small epidemics • If , only large epidemics • Average final size: • Critical vaccination coverage:

  33. Properties of R0 - stochastic • Threshold parameter: • If , only small epidemics • If , possible large epidemics • Average final size (cond on non-extinct): • Critical vaccination coverage:

  35. Standard stochastic SIR model (sSIR) • Population of individuals • Upon infection, each case : • remains infectious for a duration , iid • makes infectious contacts with each person in the population at the points of a homogeneous Poisson process with rate • Contacted individuals, if susceptible, become infected • Recovered individuals are immune to further infection • Even more realistic:

  37. Multitype epidemic model • Different types of individuals • Define the next generation matrix (NGM): where is the average number of type- cases generated by a type- case, throughout the entire infectious period, in a fully susceptible population Properties of the NGM: • Non-negative elements • We assume positive regularity

  38. Basic reproduction number R0 Naïve definition: “ Average number of new cases generated by a typical case, throughout the entire infectious period, in a large and otherwise fully susceptible population ” What is a typical case? What do we mean by fully susceptible population?

Multitype epidemic model • Different types of individuals • Define the next generation matrix (NGM): where is the average number of type- cases generated by a type- case, throughout the entire infectious period, in a fully susceptible population Properties of the NGM: • Non-negative elements • We assume positive regularity

  40. Perron-Frobenius theory • Single dominant eigenvalue , which is positive and real • “Dominant” eigenvector has non-negative components • For every starting condition, after a few generations, the proportions of cases of each type in a generation converge to the components of the dominant eigenvector , with per-generation multiplicative factor

  42. Perron-Frobenius theory • Single dominant eigenvalue , which is positive and real • “Dominant” eigenvector has non-negative components • For every starting condition, after a few generations, the proportions of cases of each type in a generation converge to the components of the dominant eigenvector , with per-generation multiplicative factor • Define • Interpret “typical” case as a linear combination of cases of each type given by

  45. Household reproduction number R* • Consider a within-household epidemic started by one initial case • Define: • average household final size, excluding the initial case • average number of global infections an individual makes • “Linearise” the epidemic process at the level of households: • Pellis, Ball & Trapman(2012)

  48. Basic concepts • What is a network? • A pair (set of nodes, set of edges) • Can be represented with an adjacency matrix • What does it represent? • Anything that involves actors and actor-actor interactions • Nodes can be individuals, groups, households, cities, locations… • Edges can be transmissions, friendships, flights routes… • Some properties: • Degree distribution • Assortativity (degree correlation) • Clustering • Modularity • Betweenness centrality

  49. Constructing a network • Just draw one • Direct measurement • Deterministic algorithm • Stochastic algorithm • Erdös-Rényi random graph • Configuration model • Preferential attachment model (e.g. BA model scale-free) • Small world network • A random graph: • is a family of graphs, specified by a random algorithm • each specific graph occurs with a certain probability • its properties are random variables (e.g. size of the largest connected component) or mean/variance of such variables

  50. Epidemics on a network • Some networks are labelled (e.g. age of nodes) • In an epidemic, labels vary over time (e.g. S, I, R) • If you run a stochastic epidemic on a random graph, results are random because of the epidemic process AND of the graph • Usually one thinks: but there might be better approaches: • making the graph as the epidemic is running • if possible, average over the graph family and only then over the epidemic process • …
