From: Incorporating social vulnerability in infectious disease mathematical modelling: a scoping review
Example of influencing or including parameters in compartmental modelling: The transmission rate β is influenced by dt, a social distancing index between zero and one. Dt comprises measures of civic capital (k), the perceived riskiness of the virus (r), and policy response adopted over the course of the pandemic (p). Included are two civic capital parameters: one based on the internalisation of the externalities (η, belief in other’s well-being) and another on law-abidingness (v)
