The length of the infectious period and the probability of infection per O The number of recovered individuals and the probability of infection per contact event Submit Q6.9. Why is it important to "flatten the curve" by reducing the peak number of infections during an epidemic? O Flattening the curve hastens the arrival of herd immunity for the population. O Flattening the curve reduces the likelihood of exceeding the health care system's capacity. O Flattening the curve eliminates the need for community mitigation strategies like social distancing. O Flattening the curve reduces the number of people who need to be vaccinated.

Indigenous health systems and services Case Study Jonas is a 53-year-old Wiradjuri man originally from a small country town in the far north west of New South Wales. He was an excellent swimmer at junior state level and at 14 years old won a scholarship to the Australian Institute of Sport in Canberra. He was extremely homesick, so after a few months returned home. Jonas managed to successfully complete Year 12 and eventually a law degree through Sydney University. He did further studies in the USA, coming back to work as an academic in Sydney, and lives with his partner and their son. He struggled with his weight until having gastric band surgery at age 42. Jonas regularly exercises and loves playing team sports, although mostly at a social level now.

SIR With Simple Demographics 7. 8. What is the equation that describes Ro for this model? How does host lifespan affect Ro? 9. Suppose there is a "closed population" with no births or deaths or recovery. Could this population support an endemic disease? 10. . If the time scale for this model is days, what might a reasonable value for the birth/death rate d be, if we're thinking about European Rabbits? (remember average lifespan = 1/d). You may suppose that the average lifespan of a European Rabbit is 9 years.
