[Use of a dynamic conditional model for analyzing the epidemic process in meningococcal infection in the closed collective]. 1982

L F Cherniatina, and V F Berezhnoĭ

The article deals with the main trends of using the dynamic model of the epidemic process in meningococcal infection in close groups with a view of solving scientific and practical tasks connected with the analysis of the epidemic situation, the formation of conditional groups with specified properties in relation to the spread of meningococci. The parameters used in the model, characterizing the process in the closed group, are described, and possible sources of information allowing to determine these parameters are indicated. Limited possibilities for practical use of mathematical simulation of the epidemic process in meningococcal infection at the contemporary level of knowledge is shown.
