Abstract:
The spread of infectious diseases within a group setting is a complex phenomenon that requires careful observation and analysis. In this experiment, we investigate the dynamics of disease transmission by simulating the exchange of test tubes among nine individuals. The experiment consists of three rounds of random tube exchanges, with one tube initially containing the infectious agent. By observing how many people become infected after these exchanges, we aim to understand the principle and expected results of disease spread in such scenarios.
Starting with an initial state where one individual possesses the infected test tube, each person randomly swaps their tube with another person in each round. This process allows for multiple opportunities for the infection to be passed on to different individuals. We assume that the tube exchange is completely random.
Through this experimental setup, we can observe and quantify the extent of disease transmission within the group. The findings from this study contribute to our understanding of contagion cascades and provide insights into preventive measures for controlling infectious diseases.
