Spread of a disease The rate r at which a disease spreads in a population of size P is jointly proportional to the number x of infected people and the number P x who are not infected.
An infection erupts in a small town that has population P = 5000.
Calculate the rate of spread when the entire population is infected. Why does this answer make intuitive sense?
