Methods:
During the practical, we employed a simulation approach to observe the spread of an infectious disease within a group of nine individuals. The following steps were followed:
Experimental Setup: We assembled a group of nine people, each assigned a unique number from 1 to 9. Each individual was provided with one test tube, among which one test tube initially contained the source of infection.
Exchange Process: Three rounds of random exchanges of test tubes were conducted. In the first round, each person randomly swapped their test tube with another individual in the group. This process allowed for potential transmission of the infected test tube to someone else within the group. The second round involved another random exchange of test tubes, further increasing the chances of transmission. Finally, in the third round, a final set of random swaps took place.
Outcome Observation: After completing all three rounds of test tube exchanges, we observed and recorded how many people became infected in the end. An individual was considered infected if they possessed the infected test tube at any point during the experiment.
Data analysis focused on quantifying and analyzing the number of individuals who were eventually infected after three rounds of random exchanges. This involved counting and documenting the number of people that acquired the infectious agent through the transmission process.
The experimental procedure aimed to simulate real-world scenarios by utilizing randomized exchanges and tracking infection spread within a controlled environment. By applying this methodology, we sought to gain insights into how diseases propagate within groups and understand factors influencing their transmission dynamics.
