    Snippet: The study of metapopulation model not only expands our knowledge on the dynamics of spatial epidemic spreading, but also manifests the power in evaluating the performance of intervention strategies. For example, although the strategy of travel ban is usually deployed during a pandemic outbreak in reality, it is unclear whether the effectiveness is excellent enough in limiting the pandemic spreading.

    Document: The study of metapopulation model not only expands our knowledge on the dynamics of spatial epidemic spreading, but also manifests the power in evaluating the performance of intervention strategies. For example, although the strategy of travel ban is usually deployed during a pandemic outbreak in reality, it is unclear whether the effectiveness is excellent enough in limiting the pandemic spreading. Counterintuitively, recent studies have unraveled the limited utility of travel restrictions: Even if the worldwide air traffic is decreased to an unprecedented low level, e.g., less than 10 %, the disease landing to unaffected regions is only postponed several weeks [130] [131] [132] [133] ; the contribution to reducing the morbity is also quite limited [130, 131, 134] . Such findings are consistent with the aforementioned fact that the global invasion threshold is decreased significantly by the presence of the high-level topological heterogeneity.
