Abstract
In the classical epidemic model of Kermack and McKendrick 1927 and also in its various extensions only the prevalence of the disease in the host population is considered. The latter is subdivided into several classes such as susceptibles S, infectious I, and recovered R. The transition S → I → R → S is modeled by ordinary differential equations
