Network Firewall Dynamics and the Subsaturation Stabilization of HIV by Bilal Khan, Kirk Dombrowski, Mohamed Saad, Katherine McLean, Samuel Friedman

“…In 2001, Friedman et al. conjectured the existence of a “firewall effect” in which individuals who are infected with HIV, but remain in a state of low infectiousness, serve to prevent the virus from spreading. To evaluate this historical conjecture, we develop a new graph-theoretic measure that quantifies the extent to which Friedman’s firewall hypothesis (FH) holds in a risk network. …”
