Using mobility patterns to model disease outbreak
22:58 - 27:49 (04:50)
The mobility patterns of a city can be modeled to draw conclusions about disease outbreaks in different situations. The R0 value is less useful in modeling endemic diseases where many people have recovered, but plays a direct role in early phase outbreaks.

The mobility patterns of people in different situations such as schools and malls are modeled for different cities to draw reasonable conclusions.

Epidemiology
Summary
The mobility patterns of people in different situations such as schools and malls are modeled for different cities to draw reasonable conclusions. The concept of armchair epidemiologists is introduced to look at everyday scenarios in a scientific way.

Understanding the R0 value and exponential growth are important lessons to learn during the early phases of an endemic as it determines how many people will be susceptible to the disease.

R0, Exponential growth
Summary
Understanding the R0 value and exponential growth are important lessons to learn during the early phases of an endemic as it determines how many people will be susceptible to the disease.
