Abstract

In this research, the dynamics of influenza virus propagation was studies using an (stochastic) agent and lattice-based simulation. Effects of susceptible ratio, S, and tolerance (immunity) to the number of infected per time step (It) and to the total number of infected (I) for N=25 and N=50 were determined. The results show a very high percent infection of above 86% and a logistic dependence of the total number of infected to the spread time (time step) for However, for S < 60%, the propagation either takes longer or terminates early with very small percent of infection. Finally, our results also show that in a population with each member 0randomly given a fixed tolerance, the percent infection is very small.
