Extract

Influenza epidemics at a city or country level can be observed only through a daily officially registered morbidity, or briefly DORM. The influenza model for any country is defined as some set of equations containing the DORM for cities in that country as unknown functions of time, these being designed to approximate the cities' real DORM.
