Malaria Epidemics

When considering a malaria epidemic, it is possible to break the event down into seven separate phases, excluding the impact point, as shown in the diagram below.

The phases here are simplified into independent sections that suggest clear-cut distinctions between each phase. In reality this is not the case with the various phases actually inter-linking with each other, but nevertheless, the model helps to illustrate a methodological approach to epidemic disasters.
