    Snippet: The speed for infection has an impact on efficiency of awareness spread: for Scale-free network G S awareness reduces the peak of infection by roughly 6%, but for G E and G W this reduction is around 19%. Since in G S network infection spreads faster, hubs (individuals with many neighbors) get infected faster and loosing the chance of transmitting or receiving awareness. Wu Further, p denotes the fraction of infected population that follow self-q.....
    Document: The speed for infection has an impact on efficiency of awareness spread: for Scale-free network G S awareness reduces the peak of infection by roughly 6%, but for G E and G W this reduction is around 19%. Since in G S network infection spreads faster, hubs (individuals with many neighbors) get infected faster and loosing the chance of transmitting or receiving awareness. Wu Further, p denotes the fraction of infected population that follow self-quarantine (Iq). et al. (Wu et al., 2012) showed a similar result: global awareness (behavior change because of higher prevalence in the population) on Scale-free networks cannot be as effective as local awareness in reducing infection.
