    Snippet: Another way to look at this is to consider the effect of different sections of the f (t) distribution on R0. If the log normal distribution truncated at +2σ is used, as discussed above, 50% of the value of R0 is generated by the most interactive 5% of the population. Likewise the bottom 50% of the population in interaction terms only contributes about 2% to the total, which makes it clear why modifying their behaviour is unlikely to have signifi.....
