This interactive application explores a variation of the classic SIR model for the spread of disease. The classical SIR model assumes that a population can be divided into three distinct compartments: S is the proportion of susceptibles, I is the proportion of infected persons and R is the proportion of persons that have recovered from infection and are now immune against the disease. One extension to the classic SIR model is to add births and deaths to the model. Thus there is an inflow of new susceptibles and an outflow from all three compartments.
