Recall: Kendrick-McKermack Model
• Partitioning the population into 3 broad categories:
– Susceptible (S)
– Infectious (I)
–Removed (R)
![Page 3: Mathematical Structure & Dynamics of Aggregate System Dynamics](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022021207/620628368c2f7b173004f71b/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Model Generality
• The model can be taken as describing many processes of “contagion”
– Transmission of computer malware
– Spread of word of mouth about a new product
– Rumor propagation
– Spread of a “meme” or idea

State Equation Representation
• We can represent System Dynamics (stock & flow) models as state equations
– These are systems of first order differential equations
• Systems of arbitrary order can be represented in this way
– We can simply name the derive of a given state variable as another state variable

Key Quantities for Infectious Disease Models: Parameters
• Contacts per susceptible per unit time: c
– e.g. 20 contacts per month
– This is the number of contacts a given susceptible will have with anyone
• Per-infective-with-susceptible-contact transmission probability:
– This is the per-contact likelihood that the pathogen will be transmitted from an infective to a susceptible with whom they come into a single contact.
![Page 9: Mathematical Structure & Dynamics of Aggregate System Dynamics](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022021207/620628368c2f7b173004f71b/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Recall: Intuition Behind Common Terms • I/N: The Fraction of population members (or, by
assumption, contacts!) that are infective – Important: Simplest models assume that this is also the
fraction of a given susceptible’s contacts that are infective! Many sophisticated models relax this assumption
• c(I/N): Average number of infectives that come into contact with a susceptible in a given unit time
• c(I/N): “Force of infection”: (Approx.) likelihood a given susceptible will be infected per unit time – The idea is that if a given susceptible comes into contact
with c(I/N) infectives per unit time, and if each such contact gives likelihood of transmission of infection, then that susceptible has roughly a total likelihood of c(I/N) of getting infected per unit time (e.g. month)

Key Term: Flow Rate of New Infections
• This is the key form of the equation in many infectious disease models
• Total # of susceptibles infected per unit time
# of Susceptibles * “Likelihood” a given susceptible will be infected per unit time = S*(“Force of Infection”) =S(c(I/N))
– Note that this is a term that multiplies both S and I !
• This non-linear term is much different than the purely linear terms on which we have previously focused
– “Likelihood” is actually a probability density (a value >1 indicates that mean time to infection is <1)
![Page 12: Mathematical Structure & Dynamics of Aggregate System Dynamics](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022021207/620628368c2f7b173004f71b/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Another Useful View of Key Flow • Recall: Total # of susceptibles infected per unit
time = # of Susceptibles * “Likelihood” a given susceptible will be infected per unit time = S*(“Force of Infection”) = S(c(I/N))
• The above can also be phrased as the following: S(c(I/N))=I(c(S/N))=I(c*f*)= # of Infectives * Mean # susceptibles infected per unit time by each infective
• This implies that as # of susceptibles falls=># of susceptibles surrounding each infective falls=>the rate of new infections falls (“Less fuel for the fire” leads to a reduced burning rate)

A Critical Throttle on Infection Spread: Fraction Susceptible (f)
• The fraction susceptible (here, S/N) is a key quantity limiting the spread of infection in a population
– Recognizing its importance, we give this name f to the fraction of the population that is susceptible
• This fraction determines the “efficiency” of transmission from an infective

Under what conditions does count of infectious individuals (I) decline?
• Answer: I declines iff (the following are equivalent) there is >1 infective and
– Outflow < Inflow: Rate at which people are recovering < Rate at which people are getting infected
• S(c(I/N)) < I/ => S c /N < 1/ => (S/N c ) < 1 =>
– A Person infects fewer than 1 person over the course of their illness

Explaining the Stock & Flow Dynamics: Infectives & Susceptibles
• Initially – Each infective infects c(S/N)≈c
people on average for each time unit – the maximum possible rate
– The rate of recoveries is 0
• In short term – # Infectives grows (quickly)=> rate
of infection rises quickly • (Positive feedback!)
– Susceptibles starts to decline, but still high enough that each infective is surrounded overwhelmingly by susceptibles, so remains efficient at transmitting
• Over time, more infectives, and fewer Susceptibles – Fewer S around each I =>Rate of
infections per I declines – Many infectives start recovering =>
slower rise to I
• “Tipping point”: # of infectives plateaus – Aggregate Level: Rate of infections
= Rate of recoveries – Individual Level: Each infective
infects exactly one “replacement” before recovering
• In longer term, declining # of infectives & susceptibles => Lower & lower rate of new infections!
• Change in I dominated by recoveries => goal seeking to 0 (negative feedback!)
![Page 20: Mathematical Structure & Dynamics of Aggregate System Dynamics](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022021207/620628368c2f7b173004f71b/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Key Point
• Maximum value of stock of infectives occurs at different time than maximum of incidence!
– Maximum of incidence depends on both susceptible count and force of infection

State Space (Phase Space) • We commonly view dynamics as by watching a
variable as a function of time, but this is just a single perspective
• State space (“Phase Space”) diagrams depict the state space (phase space) of a system
• This is a space defined by coordinates corresponding to each successive state variable
• At a given point in time, the system occupies a particular position in that space
• Over time, system defined by state equations will typically etch out a trajectory in state space – Note that this trajectory is specific to a particular set
of parameters

State Space (Phase Space) Diagrams • State space (“Phase Space”) diagrams depict
subsets (possibly complete) of the state space (phase space) of a system
– This is a space defined by coordinates that gives the value
• One axis for each state variable
• Time is implicit: Just movement on a trajectory
• dx/dt vector field over coordinates x
– Shows how quickly is changing at different point
• Note that these figures are specific to a particular set of parameters

Under What Conditions Does Each Situation (“Case”) Apply?
• Hint: Under what conditions does count of infectious individuals (I) decline?
• Answer: I declines if (the following are equivalent) – Outflow < Inflow: Rate at which people are
recovering < Rate at which people are getting infected • S(c(I/N)) < I/ => S c /N < 1/ => (S/N c ) < 1 =>
– A Person infects fewer than 1 person over the course of their illness
• If I=1 (initial state) and population (N) is large, S/N 1, and we have c < 1 as criterion

Where are the Equilibria (“Fixed Points”)
• Hint: Under what situations is the model in stasis (in balance?)
• Hint 2: Under what conditions are the rates of change of the stocks 0?
• Solution: Solve for the values of the state variables (in terms of the parameters) at which the derivatives [left hand sides of state equations] equal 0)
– These will be the points in state space at which there is no change

Equilibria • For this model, any state with 0 infectives (i.e.
where S+R=N) is an equilibrium
• Not all such states are stable
– Stability: Some states will exhibit resilience (robustness) in response to disturbance (e.g. entry of an infectious person)
– Instability: Other states are “fragile” in the sense that a changed condition will totally change the state
• We will examine how to determine the stability of a given fixed point in a future session

How and why would introduction of birth & death affect system behaviour (assume for now a fixed total population size – i.e. births=deaths, and that babies are born susceptible)
• How would this change long term behavior?
• Under what condition would the stock of susceptibles be declining?
• Under what condition would the stock of infectives be declining?

This is the point where •Rate of new infections=rate of recoveries •A person infects on average 1 person before recovering •The level of susceptibles is at the lowest level where the infection is “sustainable” (in the short run)
•At this point # susceptibles = # susceptibles at endemic equilibrium
Why is the # of susceptibles still declining?
Why is the # of susceptibles rising, to well above its “sustainable” value?
This fraction of susceptibles at endemic equilibrium is the minimum “sustainable” value of susceptible – i.e. the value where the properties above hold.
•Above this fraction of susceptibles, the # infected will rise •Below this fraction of susceptibles, the # infected will fall
Blue: # Susceptible Red: # infective Green: Force of Infection
![Page 44: Mathematical Structure & Dynamics of Aggregate System Dynamics](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022021207/620628368c2f7b173004f71b/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
This is the point where
•Rate of new infections=rate of recoveries •A person infects on average 1 person before recovering •The level of susceptibles is at the lowest level where the infection is “sustainable” (in the short run)
The susceptibles are still declining here because the large # of infectives still causes enough infections that rate of immigration < rate of infections + deaths
The rise is occurring because infectives are so low that so few infections occur that births >infections+deaths. S rises above the sustainable value because infectives are Still in decline until that point – so infectives remain low For a while!
![Page 45: Mathematical Structure & Dynamics of Aggregate System Dynamics](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022021207/620628368c2f7b173004f71b/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
Delays
• For a while after infectives start declining (i.e. susceptibles are below sustainable endemic value), they still deplete susceptibles sufficiently for susceptibles to decline
• For a while after susceptibles are rising (until susceptibles=endemic value), infectives will still decline
• For a while after infectives start rising, births > # of infections =>susceptibles will rise to a peak well above endemic level

Equilibria: How Many?
• Disease free – No infectives in population
– Entire population is susceptible
• Endemic – Steady-state equilibrium produced by spread of
illness
– Assumption is often that children get exposed when young
• The stability of the these equilibria (whether the system departs from them when perturbed) depends on the parameter values – For the disease-free equilibrium on R0
![Page 52: Mathematical Structure & Dynamics of Aggregate System Dynamics](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022021207/620628368c2f7b173004f71b/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
Equilibrium Behaviour • With Births & Deaths, the system can approach an
“endemic equilibrium” where the infection stays circulating in the population – but in balance
• The balance is such that (simultaneously) – The rate (in people/unit time) of new infections = The
rate of immigration • Otherwise # of susceptibles would be changing!
– The rate of new infections = the rate of recovery • Otherwise # of infectives would be changing!
• For simplicity, we assumed a fixed population, but similar properties will hold

Recall: Closed Population (No Birth & Death)
• Infection always dies out in the population
• Some infections will take longer to die out
• There is a “tipping point” between two cases
– # of people infected declines out immediately
– Infection causes an outbreak before the infection dies down (# of people infected rises and then falls)

– μ=10
– Birth and death rate=0.02
– Initial infectives=1, other 1000 susceptible

Infection Extinction • As for the case with a closed population, an
open population has two cases
– Infection dies out immediately
– Outbreak: Infection takes off
• Here – in contrast to the case for a closed population –the infection will typically go to an endemic equilibrium

Infection
• Recall: For this model, a given infective infects c(S/N) others per time unit
– This goes up as the number of susceptibles rises
• Questions
– If the mean time a person is infective is μ, how many people does that infective infect before recovering?
– With the same assumption, how many people would that infective infect if everyone else is susceptible?
– Under what conditions would there be more infections after their recovery than before?
![Page 64: Mathematical Structure & Dynamics of Aggregate System Dynamics](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022021207/620628368c2f7b173004f71b/html5/thumbnails/64.jpg)
Fundamental Quantities
• We have just discovered the values of 2 famous epidemiological quantities for our model
– Effective Reproductive Number: R*
– Basic Reproductive Number: R0
![Page 65: Mathematical Structure & Dynamics of Aggregate System Dynamics](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022021207/620628368c2f7b173004f71b/html5/thumbnails/65.jpg)
Effective Reproductive Number: R*
• Number of individuals infected by an ‘index’ infective (over the course of their illness) in the current epidemological context
• Depends on – Contact frequency (people/unit time) – Transmission probability – Length of time infected – # (Fraction) of Susceptibles
• Affects – Whether infection spreads
• If R*> 1, # of cases will rise, If R*<1, # of cases will fall – Alternative formulation: Largest real eigenvalue <> 0
– Endemic Rate
![Page 66: Mathematical Structure & Dynamics of Aggregate System Dynamics](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022021207/620628368c2f7b173004f71b/html5/thumbnails/66.jpg)
Basic Reproduction Number: R0
• Number of individuals infected by an ‘index’ infective in an otherwise disease-free equilibrium – This is just R* at disease-free equilibrium all (other) people in
the population are susceptible other than the index infective
• Depends on – Contact frequency (people/unit time) – Transmission probability – Length of time infected
• Affects – Whether infection spreads
• If R0> 1, Epidemic Takes off, If R0<1, Epidemic dies out – Alternative formulation: Largest real eigenvalue <> 0
– Speed of spread: Initial infection rise exp(t*(R0-1)/D) – Endemic Rate
![Page 67: Mathematical Structure & Dynamics of Aggregate System Dynamics](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022021207/620628368c2f7b173004f71b/html5/thumbnails/67.jpg)
Basic Reproductive Number R0
• If contact patterns & infection duration remain unchanged and if fraction f of the population is susceptible, then mean # of individuals infected by an infective over the course of their infection is f*R0
• In endemic equilibrium: Inflow=Outflow (S/N)R0=1 – Every infective infects a “replacement” infective to keep
equilibrium – Just enough of the population is susceptible to allow this
replacement – The higher the R0, the lower the fraction of susceptibles in
equilibrium! • Generally some susceptibles remain: At some point in epidemic,
susceptibles will get so low that can’t spread
![Page 68: Mathematical Structure & Dynamics of Aggregate System Dynamics](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022021207/620628368c2f7b173004f71b/html5/thumbnails/68.jpg)
Our model
• Set
– c=10 (people/month)
– =0.04 (4% chance of transmission per S-I contact)
– μ=10
– Birth and death rate= 0
– Initial infectives=1, other 1000 susceptible
• What is R0?
• What should we expect to see ?

Thresholds • R*
– Too low # susceptibles => R* < 1: # of infectives declining
– Too high # susceptibles => R* > 1: # of infectives rising
• R0
– R0>1: Infection is introduced from outside will cause outbreak
– R0<1: “Herd immunity”: infection is introduced from outside will die out (may spread to small number before disappearing, but in unsustainable way)
• This is what we try to achieve by control programs, vaccination, etc.
• Outflow from susceptibles (infections) is determined by the # of Infectives
![Page 70: Mathematical Structure & Dynamics of Aggregate System Dynamics](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022021207/620628368c2f7b173004f71b/html5/thumbnails/70.jpg)

Adding Vaccination Stock
• Add a
– “Vaccinated” stock
– A constant called “Monthly Likelihood of Vaccination”
– “Vaccination” flow between the “Susceptible” and “Vaccinated” stocks
• The rate is the stock times the constant above
• Set initial population to be divided between 2 stocks
– Susceptible
– Vaccinated
• Incorporate “Vaccinated” in population calculation

Recall: Thresholds
• R*
– Too low # susceptibles => R* < 1: # of infectives declining
– Too high # susceptibles => R* > 1: # of infectives rising
• Outflow from susceptibles (infections) is determined by the # of Infectives
• Delays:
– For a while after infectives start declining, they still deplete susceptibles sufficiently for susceptibles to decline
– For a while after infectives start rising, the # of infections is insufficient for susceptibles to decline
![Page 79: Mathematical Structure & Dynamics of Aggregate System Dynamics](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022021207/620628368c2f7b173004f71b/html5/thumbnails/79.jpg)
Effective Reproductive Number: R*
• Number of individuals infected by an ‘index’ infective in the current epidemiological context

Recall: A Critical Throttle on Infection Spread: Fraction Susceptible (f)
• The fraction susceptible (here, S/N) is a key quantity limiting the spread of infection in a population
– Recognizing its importance, we give this name f to the fraction of the population that issusceptible
• If contact patterns & infection duration remain unchanged and, then mean # of individuals infected by an infective over the course of their infection is f*R0
![Page 82: Mathematical Structure & Dynamics of Aggregate System Dynamics](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022021207/620628368c2f7b173004f71b/html5/thumbnails/82.jpg)
Recall: Endemic Equilibrium
• Inflow=Outflow (S/N)R0=fR0=1
– Every infective infects a “replacement” infective to keep equilibrium
– Just enough of the population is susceptible to allow this replacement
• The higher the R0, the lower the fraction of susceptibles in equilibrium!
– Generally some susceptibles remain: At some point in epidemic, susceptibles will get so low that can’t spread
![Page 83: Mathematical Structure & Dynamics of Aggregate System Dynamics](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022021207/620628368c2f7b173004f71b/html5/thumbnails/83.jpg)
Critical Immunization Threshold • Consider an index infective arriving in a “worst
case” scenario when noone else in the population is infective or recovered from the illness
– In this case, that infective is most “efficient” in spreading
• The goal of vaccination is keep the fraction susceptible low enough that infection cannot establish itself even in this worst case
– We do this by administering vaccines that makes a person (often temporarily) immune to infection
• We say that a population whose f is low enough that it is resistant to establishment of infection exhibits “herd immunity”
![Page 84: Mathematical Structure & Dynamics of Aggregate System Dynamics](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022021207/620628368c2f7b173004f71b/html5/thumbnails/84.jpg)
Critical Immunization Threshold
• Vaccination seeks to lower f such that f*R0<1
• Worst case: Suppose we have a population that is divided into immunized (vaccinated) and susceptible
– Let qc be the critical fraction immunized to stop infection
– Then f=1-qc, f*R0<1 (1-qc)*R0<1qc>1-(1/R0)
• So if R0 = 4 (as in our example), qc=0.75(i.e. 75% of population must be immunized – just as we saw!)

– Entire population is susceptible
• Endemic – Steady-state equilibrium produced by spread of
illness
– Assumption is often that children get exposed when young
• The stability of the these equilibria (whether the system departs from them when perturbed) depends on the parameter values – For the disease-free equilibrium on R0

Adding Vaccination Stock
• Add a
– “Vaccinated” stock
– A constant called “Monthly Likelihood of Vaccination”
– “Vaccination” flow between the “Susceptible” and “Vaccinated” stocks
• The rate is the stock times the constant above
• Set initial population to be divided between 2 stocks
– Susceptible
– Vaccinated
• Incorporate “Vaccinated” in population calculation

Critical Immunization Threshold • Consider an index infective arriving in a “worst
case” scenario when noone else in the population is infective or recovered from the illness
– In this case, that infective is most “efficient” in spreading
• The goal of vaccination is keep the fraction susceptible low enough that infection cannot establish itself even in this worst case
– We do this by administering vaccines that makes a person (often temporarily) immune to infection
• We say that a population whose f is low enough that it is resistant to establishment of infection exhibits “herd immunity”

Critical Immunization Threshold
• Vaccination seeks to lower f such that f*R0<1
• Worst case: Suppose we have a population that is divided into immunized (vaccinated) and susceptible
– Let qc be the critical fraction immunized to stop infection
– Then f=1-qc, f*R0<1 (1-qc)*R0<1qc>1-(1/R0)
• So if R0 = 4 (as in our example), qc=0.75(i.e. 75% of population must be immunized – just as we saw!)

Simulating Introduction of Vaccination for a Childhood Infection in an Open Population • c = 500
• Beta = 0.05
• Duration of infection = .25
• Initial Fraction Vaccinated = 0
• Monthly birth & death rate = 10% per year (focusing on children 0-10 years of age)
• Questions – What is R0?
– What level of susceptibles is required to sustain the infection
– What is the critical vaccination fraction?

Endemic Situations
• In an endemic context, infection remains circulating in the population
• The common assumption here is that
• The susceptible portion of the population will be children
• At some point in their life trajectory (at an average age of acquiring infection A), individuals will be exposed to the infection & develop immunity

Age of Exposure & Reproductive Constant • Cf a “natural” (non-immunized) constant size
population where all die at same age and where – Mean Age at death L
– Mean Age of exposure A (i.e. we assume those above A are exposed)
• Fraction susceptible is S/N = A/L (i.e. proportion of population below age A)
• Recall for our (and many but not all other) models: R*=(S/N)R0=1S/N=1/R0
• Thus
A/L = 1/R0 L/A = R0 • This tells us that the larger the R0, the earlier in life individuals
become infected

Incompletely Immunized Population
• Suppose we have q fraction of population immunized (q<qc)
• Suppose we have fraction f susceptible
• Fraction of the population currently or previously infected is 1-q-f
– If we assume (as previously) that everyone lives until L and is infected at age A, then fraction 1-A/L has been infected
– So 1-A/L= 1-q-f A = L(q+f)
• This can be much higher than for the natural population
– This higher age of infection can cause major problems, due to waning of childhood defenses
• i.e. incomplete immunization leads to older mean age ofexposure
