Description

Understanding how epidemic spread and opinion dynamics coevolve is key to predicting public responses and improving intervention strategies. While separate agent-based models exist, their interaction is not well understood. We aim to develop a new model with optimal coupling mechanisms based on epidemic and opinion data and analyse it dynamical behavior. By comparing dynamics across countries and pathogens, we seek to support better policy design for future health crises.
