Simulation Results for Scenario 2 of Avian Influenza with 250 people (200 susceptible) and the use of masks with a 10% reduction in transmission.
Masks are used starting on day 30, when the epidemic has already nearly run its course.

Simulation Results for Scenario 3 of Avian Influenza with 250 people (200 susceptible) and the use of masks with a 10% reduction in transmission.
Masks are used starting on day 10, when the epidemic is still in its growth phase.

Footprints“I’m glad I don’t live on a 1200 acre farm like you,
Sam!” teased Sue as the two friends hurried into their Biology class.
“Why?” asked Sam, “Weren’t you just complaining about living in your parent’s downtown condo?”
“Well, that’s true,” Sue admitted, “But I was thinking about today’s class assignment on sustainability. I bet you have the biggest footprint in the whole class.”
Much to Sue’s surprise, Sam didn’t look all that concerned. He held out his hand and replied confidently, “I’ll take that bet!”
