Behavior threshold conditions in SIS STD models

In multi-group epidemiological models with nonrandom mixing be- tween people in the different groups, often artificial constraints have to be imposed in order to satisfy the balance conditions. Based on the model in this article, we construct a simple biased mixing model where the balance conditions a...
