How the individual human mobility spatio-temporally shapes the disease transmission dynamics

摘要

Geotemporal spreading pattern of an uncontrolled epidemic in Belgium and Martinique. The snapshots show a spreading pattern of an epidemic in Belgium (left column) and Martinique (right column) with  = 1.9 at 25, 40, 50, and 70 days after the introduction of the disease. The shade of grey represents the population density, and the shade of red indicates the cumulative number of infected individuals in each location. Population sizes simulated for Belgium and Martinique are within 2,252 locations and within 86 locations, respectively. The parameter values used in the simulations are summarized in Table in the Methods section.
