Mathematical Analysis of Infectious Diseases updates on the mathematical and epidemiological analysis of infectious diseases. Epidemic mathematical modeling and analysis is important, not only to understand disease progression, but also to provide predictions about the evolution of disease. One of the main focuses of the book is the transmission dynamics of the infectious diseases like COVID-19 and the intervention strategies. It also discusses optimal control strategies like vaccination and plasma transfusion and their potential effectiveness on infections using compartmental and mathematical models in epidemiology like SI, SIR, SICA, and SEIR. The book also covers topics like: biodynamic hypothesis and its application for the mathematical modeling of biological growth and the analysis of infectious diseases, mathematical modeling and analysis of diagnosis rate effects and prediction of viruses, data-driven graphical analysis of epidemic trends, dynamic simulation and scenario analysis of the spread of diseases, and the systematic review of the mathematical modeling of infectious disease like coronaviruses.
"...presented as ‘the most recent and up-to-date developments in the mathematical and epidemiological analysis of infectious diseases.’ It is a collection of what look like conference papers, covering a wide variety of infectious diseases modeling topics and approaches…. accessible to audiences with a fair bit of mathematical sophistication…. [S]ome chapters that are more introductory and pedagogical in nature…are very good. Some topics are well covered (e.g., chapters 9 and 10) and others are very interesting applications…." --©Doody’s Review Service, 2023, David N Fisman, MD, MSc (University of Toronto Dalla Lana School of Public Health)
