\section{Modelling the spread of Yellow Fever using the Basis SIR model}
\begin{itemize}
\item Using an approximate $\beta$ and $\gamma$ to calculate an appropriate $R_0$
\item Show using graph that using the basis model, the spread is too slow to replicate real life
\item Question- what factors will affect it to make the rate of spread more like the real life example
\end{itemize}
\section{Adapting the SIR model}
It is clear that using the basis SIR model to predict the spread of yellow fever is not appropriate. This was expected; there are simply too many assumptions in the basis model, as well as a lack of appreciation for factors which may affect the rate of spread.
