Some relatively mild illnesses, like the common cold, return to infect you again and again. For a while, right after you recover from a cold, you are immune. But that doesn’t last; after some weeks or months, depending on the illness, you become susceptible again. This means there is now a flow from the recovered population to the susceptible. These exercises ask you to modify the basic S-I-R model to describe an illness where immunity is temporary.

c. We saw in the text that the model for an illness that confers permanent immunity has a threshold value for S in the sense that when S is above the threshold, I increases, but when it is below, I decreases. Does this model have the same feature? If so, what is the threshold value?

As a toxicologist, you are given the assignment of determining whether a new chemical is capable of producing dermal sensitization. Explain how you would test for this. Include in your explanation the model/test system you would use and a brief description of how the test is run and interpreted.

Hint: You will need to use resources outside the textbook to answer this. There are many standardized protocols that will be easy to find. Please include in your answer why you picked the test(s) you selected.
