The effect of global travel on the spread of SARS
The goal of this paper is to study the global spread of SARS. Wepropose a multiregional compartmental model using medical geography theory(central place theory) and regarding each outbreak zone (such as Hong Kong,Singapore, Toronto, and Beijing) as one region. We then study the effect ofthe travel o...
