Expert Solution
Step 1

* SIR ( susceptible, infectious, recovery/removed) model is classical model of disease transmission with in a population.

*According to SIR model no one is immune resistance to a disease at first if once immunity gained it is permanent .

*In SIR model individuals placed in a population with three types of people.

  1. Susceptible ( one who is likely to get infected)
  2. Infectious ( one who has disease)
  3. Recovery/removed class ( one who recovered from the disease)

*The removed class does not have any infection now and not again resusceptible.

* For example: A vaccine is made against to cure flu.if a person is vaccinated once, that individual will not get more than once in this epidemic 

* Individuals can move from class to class like susceptible class to infectious class to recovered class.

* Susceptible class do not have immunity resistance to flu at first so they will move to infectious and then get vaccinated which will boost his immunity so the. He will enter to recovery class .Here the recovery class will have immunity.

* And do not enter susceptible again.
