We describe the application of mathematical models in the study of disease epidemics with particular focus on pandemic influenza. We outline the general mathematical approach and the complications arising from attempts to apply it for disease outbreak management in a real public health context.
我们描述了数学模型在疾病流行研究中的应用,特别关注大流行性流感。我们概述了一般的数学方法,以及在尝试将其应用于实际公共卫生领域的疾病爆发管理时出现的复杂性。
