An Agent-Based Model of COVID-19
Christopher Wolfram
Abstract
Many simple models of disease spread assume a homogeneous population (or population groups) with a uniform basic reproduction number (R0) The goal here is to develop and analyze an agent-based model of disease that models: (1) variability of interaction rates between agents;and (2) the structure of the in-person contact network © 2020, Complex Systems Publications, Inc All rights reserved
