Critical role of nosocomial transmission in the Toronto SARS outbreak
We develop a compartmental mathematical model to address therole of hospitals in severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) transmissiondynamics, which partially explains the heterogeneity of the epidemic. Comparison of the effects of two major policies, strict hospital infection controlprocedures and...
