Abstract

We study a model for the spread of an infectious disease which incorporates spatial and temporal effects. The model is a delayed multi-type branching process in which types represent geographic regions while infected individuals reproduce offspring during a finite time interval and have convales- cence times and random death/recovery outcomes. We give simple expressions for the limit of the geometrically weighted mean evolution of the process.
