A Susceptible-Infected-Recovered (SIR) disease model

This systems model will help students understand the different systems that make up our body and how choices we make can impact how those systems work.
Factors are based on daily choices.

SARS-CoV-19 spread in different countries

- please adjust variables accordingly

Italy

elderly population (>65): 0.228
estimated undetected cases factor: 4-11
starting population size: 60 000 000
high blood pressure: 0.32 (gbe-bund)
heart disease: 0.04 (statista)
free intensive care units: 3 100

Germany

elderly population (>65): 0.195 (bpb)
estimated undetected cases factor: 2-3 (deutschlandfunk)
starting population size: 83 000 000
high blood pressure: 0.26 (gbe-bund)
heart disease: 0.2-0.28 (herzstiftung)
free intensive care units: 5 880

France

elderly population (>65): 0.183 (statista)
estimated undetected cases factor: 3-5
starting population size: 67 000 000
high blood pressure: 0.3 (fondation-recherche-cardio-vasculaire)
heart disease: 0.1-0.2 (oecd)
free intensive care units: 3 000

As you wish

numbers of encounters/day: 1 = quarantine, 2-3 = practicing social distancing, 4-6 = heavy social life, 7-9 = not caring at all // default 2
practicing preventive measures (ie. washing hands regularly, not touching your face etc.): 0.1 (nobody does anything) - 1 (very strictly) // default 0.8
government elucidation: 0.1 (very bad) - 1 (highly transparent and educating) // default 0.9
Immunity rate (due to lacking data): 0 (you can't get immune) - 1 (once you had it you'll never get it again) // default 0.4

Key

Healthy: People are not infected with SARS-CoV-19 but could still get it
Infected: People have been infected and developed the disease COVID-19
Recovered: People just have recovered from COVID-19 and can't get it again in this stage
Dead: People died because of COVID-19
Immune: People got immune and can't get the disease again
Critical recovery percentage: Chance of survival with no special medical treatment
