The article presents the SIR model, commonly employed in disease modeling to study disease transmission among a population. It classifies people into susceptible (S), infected (I), or recovered (R) categories. The movement between these categories is described by mathematical equations, where factors like transmission and recovery rates impact the model’s behavior. This model enables the simulation of epidemics on computers.

we used the SIR model in epidemiology class in 3rd year, this brought back memories

Oh yeah, we had a session or two on it during our first semester. And we modelled it in MATLAB it was fun.
