Mathematical Analysis of Infectious DiseasesAuthor(s): Praveen Agarwal, Juan J. Nieto, Delfim F.M. Torres\nFormat: Paperback\nPublisher: Elsevier Science & Technology, United Kingdom\nImprint: Academic Press Inc\nISBN-13: 9780323905046, 978-0323905046\nSynopsis\nMathematical Analysis of Infectious Diseases updates on the mathematical and epidemiological analysis of infectious diseases. Epidemic mathematical modeling and analysis is important, not only to understand disease progression, but also to provide predictions about the evolution of disease. One of the main focuses of the book is the transmission dynamics of the infectious diseases like COVID-19 and the intervention strategies. It also discusses optimal control strategies like vaccination and plasma transfusion and their potential effectiveness on infections using compartmental and mathematical models in epidemiology like SI, SIR, SICA, and SEIR. \n\nThe book also covers topics like: biodynamic hypothesis and its applicati.
