A general theory for infectious disease dynamics

2022-09-13

Abstract excerpt

We present a general theory of infection spreading, which directly follows from conservation laws and takes as inputs the probability density functions of latent times. The derivation of the theory substantially differs from Kermack and McKendrick (1927) argument, which instead was based on the concept of removal rates. We demonstrate the formal equivalence of the two approaches, but our theory provides a clear in...
