Role Of Word-Of-Mouth For Programs Of Voluntary Vaccination: A Game-Theoretic Approach

Bhattacharyya, Samit; Bauch, Chris T.; Breban, Romulus (Elsevier, 2015-11-01)

We propose a model describing the synergetic feedback between word-of-mouth (WoM) and epidemic dynamics controlled by voluntary vaccination. The key feature consists in combining a game-theoretic model for the spread of ...
Statistical Physics Of Vaccination

Wang, Zhen; Bauch, Chris T.; Bhattacharyya, Samit; d'Onofrio, Alberto; Manfredi, Piero; Perc, Matjaz; Perra, Nicola; Salathe, Marcel; Zhao, Dawei (Elsevier, 2016-12-09)

Historically, infectious diseases caused considerable damage to human societies, and they continue to do so today. To help reduce their impact, mathematical models of disease transmission have been studied to help understand ...
“Wait and see” vaccinating behavior during a pandemic: a game theoretic analysis

Bhattacharyya, Samit; Bauch, Chris T. (Elsevier, 2011-07-26)

During the 2009 H1N1 pandemic, many individuals adopted a “wait and see” approach to vaccinating until further information was available on the course of the pandemic and emerging vaccine risks. This behaviour implies two ...
