Co-evolution of social networks and infectious diseases

Abstract: Since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic in early 2020 until the time of finishing this dissertation in July 2022, the World Health Organization has registered almost 560 Million cases and well over 6 Million deaths from COVID-19. Although a number of effective vaccines have been developed and large-scale vaccination campaigns have been implemented globally, only 58 of 194 WHO member states have met the 70\% vaccine coverage goal. Thus, mathematical models of disease spread remain one of the most important… Show more

“…Unfortunately, most existing data either allows for subgroup comparisons in a single time point [46] or allows for a comparison of the evolution of the pandemic and social norm compliance over time within a single population [16], thus limiting the possibilities of a calibration exercise. In the absence of another epidemic/pandemic, one could also test this model experimentally by assigning to participants a random infectivity risk and letting them interact in a SIRS environment were they have to choose between complying with costly preventive social norms or violating these norms and thereby increasing their payoff but also their risk of infection (see [47] for an example of an experimental test of a SIRS model with endogenous network formation).…”
