A public health implication of this finding is that the traditional disease control approach based on random immunization (which has been shown to be effective in many epidemic outbreaks [8] ) may not be effective (unless, of course, the entire population can be treated), because untreated hubs, albeit small in number, can still lead to rapid and large-scale infections [8] . In this section, we analyze the SARS transmission patterns based on the weighted occupation network (WON) as shown in Fig. 7 . To better understand the SARS epidemic transmission patterns and evolution, we have studied three networks derived from the patient survey data, including a patient contact network, a weighted district network, and a weighted occupation network. ./cache/cord-017108-vqbl0eov.txt ./txt/cord-017108-vqbl0eov.txt
