The authors studied their coupled "disease-behavior" model in well-mixed populations, in square lattice populations, in random network populations, and in SF network populations, and found that population structure acts as a "double-edged sword" for public health: it can promote high levels of voluntary vaccination and herd immunity given that the cost for vaccination is not too large, but small increases in the cost beyond a certain threshold would cause vaccination to plummet, and infections to rise, more dramatically than in well-mixed populations. The first mathematical models studied the adaptive dynamics of disease-behavior responses in the homogeneously mixed population, assuming that individuals interact with each other at the same contact rate, without restrictions on selecting potential partners. ./cache/cord-288342-i37v602u.txt ./txt/cord-288342-i37v602u.txt
