Mathematical Modeling in the Age of the PandemicAuthor(s): William P. Fox\nFormat: Paperback\nPublisher: Taylor & Francis Ltd, United Kingdom\nImprint: Chapman & Hall/CRC\nISBN-13: 9780367684747, 978-0367684747\nSynopsis\nOne cannot watch or read about the news these days without hearing about the models for COVID-19 or the testing that must occur to approve vaccines or treatments for the disease.\n\nThe purpose of Mathematical Modeling in the Age of a Pandemic is to shed some light on the meaning and interpretations of many of the types of models that are or might be used in the presentation of analysis. Understanding the concepts presented is essential in the entire modeling process of a pandemic.\n\nFrom the virus itself and its infectious rates and deaths rates to explain the process for testing a vaccine or eventually a cure, the author builds, presents, and shows model testing. \n\nThis book is an attempt, based on available data, to add some validity to the models deve.
