Abstract Full text About this article

In this paper, we provide a detailed review of two categories of the literature: the spontaneous protective behaviors of individuals during disease spread and the mandatory measures to control the disease spread. In the literature, the models of individual protective behaviors can be divided into two parts: the environment-induced protective behaviors and the information-induced protective behaviors. And the mandatory measures of disease control can be divided into two parts: the macro-based control methods and the micro-based control methods. We provide a detailed review to the various categories of research. Then we compare the effects of different control methods through simulation. Among the micro-based control methods, the method based on minimizing the largest eigenvalue has the best effect. This review is of crucial importance to summarize the studies of the spontaneous protective behaviors during disease spread and the mandatory measures to control the disease spread.

Abstract

In this paper, we provide a detailed review of two categories of the literature: the spontaneous protective behaviors of individuals during disease spread and the mandatory measures to control the disease spread. In the literature, the models of individual protective behaviors can be divided into two parts: the environment-induced protective behaviors and the information-induced protective behaviors. And the mandatory measures of disease control can be divided into two parts: the macro-based control methods and the micro-based control methods. We provide a detailed review to the various categories of research. Then we compare the effects of different control methods through simulation. Among the micro-based control methods, the method based on minimizing the largest eigenvalue has the best effect. This review is of crucial importance to summarize the studies of the spontaneous protective behaviors during disease spread and the mandatory measures to control the disease spread.
