   A Typical Run

From a qualitative standpoint, a simulated epidemic started from one spot

and then spread out across the grid, like a bacteria culture. Eventually it

died out as there weren’t enough susceptible people nearby to infect,

leaving some areas intact.

     

Numerically, the CA model in this work showed a slight peak in number
of infected (red), while the number of recovered (green) followed a
Logistic growth pattern. Hence, the CA model is in accordance with
the traditional Kermack-McKendrick Model.
