ABSTRACT

The plague is one of the most feared disasters for mankind since ancient times. In recent years, the new type of coronavirus pneumonia has raged on a global scale, and it has aroused international attention. Human beings have invested in the prevention of the epidemic, and have invested considerable research during this period to allow all mankind to overcome this difficulty. This article focuses on the spread of infectious diseases and uses the Wells-Riley equation to evaluate the spread of infectious diseases in different forms of transmission. Finally, it is given how to protect yourself when an epidemic occurs, so as to minimize the risk of infection as much as possible.

KEYWORDS

The spread of infectious diseases, Wells-Riley equation, differential equation, finite difference method
