“…For example, based on real hospitalization data of the respiratory syncytial virus (RSV ), we believe that the transmission of this type of disease is affected by several physical and social variables [29], [30]. In fact RSV is an illness for which the timing and severity of outbreaks in a community vary from year to year [6], [31], [29]. Here we assume that the transmission rate parameter of the RSV can be assumed equal to an average value plus a small time fluctuating term and this term follows a normal distribution with mean zero [32].…”
