Modeling Infectious Disease Parameters Based on Serological and Social Contact Data

Mathematical epidemiology of infectious diseases usually involves describing the flow of individuals between mutually exclusive infection states. One of the key parameters describing the transition from the susceptible to the infected class is the hazard
