We use both a simplified 1D motion model as well as a more realistic 2D model to represent migratory movement between areas.  Each model incorporates social influence to movement, disease-dependent personal location preferences, and location-dependent disease transfer and recovery rates. An agent \(i\) has a disease state \(h_i=\left\{0,1\right\}\), with 0 representing susceptible (i.e. not infected) and 1 representing infected, and a position \(x_i\) (1D model) or \(\mathbf{r}_i = (x_i,y_i)\)  (2D model).
