A note on the total size distribution of carrier-borne epidemic models
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 14 July 2016
Abstract
The coupling method of Ball (1986) is extended to carrier-borne epidemics, thus providing a new proof of a result of Daniels (1972) concerning the total size distribution of Downton's stochastic carrier-borne epidemic. The generalization to multipopulation carrier-borne epidemics is immediate.
