Social Dilemma of Disease Control

Santa Fe Institute via YouTube

Overview

Explore a comprehensive lecture on the complex interplay between disease control and social behavior. Delve into the critical need for integrating top-down and bottom-up perspectives in managing epidemics. Examine dueling contagions, disease-behavior interactions on multilayer networks, and the concept of herd immunity through mass vaccination. Investigate the dilemma of social distancing, including oscillatory dynamics and imperfect adoptions driven by self-interest. Analyze the adaptive dynamics of face-covering decisions and the Swiss cheese model of multiple non-pharmaceutical interventions. Consider the strategic timing of vaccination and the social dilemma of vaccination behavior. Study the temporal dynamics of dueling contagions, vaccine scares, and hysteresis loops in vaccination coverage. Learn how bottom-up understanding of behavior and attitude changes can inform the alignment of incentives with top-down interventions. Discover the integration of Twitter sentiment data and targeting algorithms in multilayer network analysis of disease control strategies.
