Description
Summary:In this study, we illustrate the incorporation of two vaccine doses into a discrete SIR model to aid in the decision-making process for optimal vaccination strategies. We present a basic model of a human interaction network synthesized to depict social contacts within a population, taking into account the number of connections and the level of interaction among individuals. Under a limited number of available vaccine doses, we explore various vaccination scenarios considering factors such as the distribution of vaccines, the proportion of vaccinated individuals, and the timing of vaccination commencement. Our research demonstrates that the most effective vaccination strategy, which focuses on re-characterized hubs or redefining the individual who has high connectivity, will cover fewer individuals and result in the smallest total number of infected individuals.
