On the Number of Periodic Inspections During Outbreaks of Discrete-Time Stochastic SIS Epidemic Models

This paper deals with an infective process of type SIS, taking place in a closed population of moderate size that is inspected periodically. Our aim is to study the number of inspections that find the epidemic process still in progress. As the underlying mathematical model involves a discrete time M...
