Scientific paper

We develop simple models for the global spread of infectious diseases,
emphasizing human mobility via air travel and the variation of public health
infrastructure from region to region. We derive formulas relating the total and
peak number of infections in two countries to the rate of travel between them
and their respective epidemiological parameters.
