Abstract In this paper, a dynamic epidemic control model on the uncorrelated complex networks is proposed. By means of theoretical analysis, we found that the new model has a similar epidemic threshold as that of the susceptible-infected-recovered (SIR) model on the above networks, but it can reduce the prevalence of the infected individuals remarkably. This result may help us understand epidemic spreading phenomena on real networks and design appropriate strategies to control infections.

Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
