A virus is transmitted by contact and if you are first infected, you will remain a carrier for an indefinite period. In an isolated population with "P" persons, is the infection rate at time "t" (in months after 1.jan 2020) proportional to the product of(1) the number of y (t) infected,(2) the number who are not infected,i.e the infection follows logistic growth. One tenth of the population is infected 1.jan -2020.If one-fifth of the population is infected one month later, how many are infected one year later?
