1. Origin and Epidemic Spread

Identify approximately where the outbreak started on the map (ground zero location). Outline the affected area. Explain how you arrived at your conclusion. (Please limit your answer to six images and 500 words.)

Key word, as well as the Diagnosis Word, flu remain calm till May 18th, and shoot up from 19th and 20th. Whereas, another Diagnosis Word, cold start to shoot up for May 18th and decrease back after. For Symptom key words, it start to increase from 18th and hit its peak on 19th.

From here, it is safe to say that words describing symptoms appear 1 day before flu. Therefore, symptoms plot on May 18th is closely monitored.

Symptom traffic was clam until 07:00 and started to leap up from 08:00. People mainly in Downtown started to have symptoms and it also start to spread to Eastside area. By 20:00 on same day, symptom text traffic appear all over Vastropolis area. It is not surprising that contagion from top 2 area with the highest floating_population would spread to all over the city.

Ground Zero area for Epidemic Outbreak: Downtown

Part A

  • Present a hypothesis on how the infection is being transmitted. For example, is the method of transmission person-­to­-person, airborne, waterborne, or something else? Identify the trends that support your hypothesis. (Please limit your answer to ten images and 1000 words.)
