Kermack–McKendrick theory
Kermack–McKendrick theory is a mathematical hypothesis about how infectious diseases spread through a population.
Building on the research of Ronald Ross and others,
A. G. McKendrick and W. O. Kermack published their theory in a set of three articles from 1927, 1932, and 1933. While Kermack—McKendrick theory was indeed the source of SIR models and their relatives, Kermack and McKendrick were thinking of a more subtle and empirically useful problem than the simple compartmental models discussed here. The text is somewhat difficult to read, compared to modern papers, but the important feature is it was a model where the age-of-infection affected the transmission and removal rates.
Because of their seminal importance to the field of theoretical epidemiology, these articles were republished in the ''Bulletin of Mathematical Biology'' in 1991.
== Epidemic model (1927) ==
In its initial form, Kermack—McKendrick theory is a compartmental differential-equation model that structures the infectioned population in terms of age-of-infection, while
using simple compartments for people who are susceptible (S) and recovered/removed (R).
Specified initial conditions would change over time according to
: \frac = - \lambda S,
: \frac + \frac = \delta(a) \lambda S- \gamma(a) i,
: \frac = \int_^\infty \gamma(a) i(a,t) \, da ,
where \delta(a) is a Dirac delta-function and the infection pressure
: \lambda = \int_0^\infty \beta(a) i(a,t) \, da .
Only in the special case when the removal rate \gamma(a) and the transmission rate \beta(a) are constant for all ages does the substitution I(t) = \int_0^\infty i(a,t) \, da transform
their theory into the simple SIR model. This basic model only accounts for infection and removal events, which are sufficient to describe a simple epidemic, including the threshold condition necessary for an epidemic to start, but can not explain endemic disease transmission or recurring epidemics.
