Effect of Human Behaviour in Spreading of Disease

V.R. Pravitha

Abstract

In this paper we discuss the variation in the spreading of disease that can be caused by behavioural variations in human being. We suggest some ways to incorporate the behavioural variations in the models. Using some examples we explain how the new models can be used to control the spreading of diseases that spread by human contact.
