Potential applications of a compartment model in the prevention and control of emerging respiratory infectious diseases in military camps
Military camps are characterized by compact space and high personnel density,which increases the risk of emerging respiratory infectious diseases and makes prevention and control difficult.One effective solution is to use a compartment model for early warning,prediction of epidemic outbreaks,and for optimization of precautions.Given the strong similarities in the transmission of emerging respiratory infectious diseases across military camps and communities,this article summarizes the cases where compartment models have been used both at home and abroad,constructs a susceptible-exposed-infectious-removed model and a susceptible-exposed-infectious-quarantined-removed model,and simulates the prediction of trends and selection of prevention and control measures in typical military camp scenarios after the outbreak of an epidemic in hopes of providing references for the prevention and control of emerging respiratory infectious diseases and for the construction of a regional intelligent early warning platform in military camps.
