Abstract

The goal of the research that is ongoing at the University of Szeged is the mathematical modelling and analysis of the spread of the virus in Hungary, and the preparation of a prognosis. In the interests of slowing the spread of the virus and reducing pressure on the healthcare system, the research is supporting decision-making based on proof and calculations. In the interests of precisely modelling the spread of the infection, experts are collecting data on relationship and travel habits before and after the virus outbreak. Anyone can help the research by filling out an online questionnaire in just a few minutes, and over 150 thousand people filled in the form in the first week alone.
