cord-157259-eozvlu4z	Britton, Tom	A network epidemic model with preventive rewiring: comparative analysis of the initial phase	2015-12-01		.txt	text/plain	9401	501	58	This paper is concerned with stochastic SIR and SEIR epidemic models on random networks in which individuals may rewire away from infected neighbors at some rate $omega$ (and reconnect to susceptible individuals with probability $alpha$ or else simply drop the edge if $alpha=0$), so-called preventive rewiring. The models are denoted SIR-$omega$ and SEIR-$omega$, and we focus attention on the early stages of an outbreak, where we derive expression for the basic reproduction number $R_0$ and the expected degree of the infectious nodes $E(D_I)$ using two different approximation approaches. This paper aims mainly at comparing the predictions from both modelling methodologies (pairwise/stochastic) for the initial phase of Susceptible-Infectious-Recovered (SIR) and Susceptible-Exposed-Infectious-Recovered (SEIR) epidemics with preventive rewiring among individuals (so, with an interplay between the spread of the disease and the rewiring process, that is, between disease's dynamics and network dynamics).	./cache/cord-157259-eozvlu4z.txt	./txt/cord-157259-eozvlu4z.txt
