In order to make the analysis consistent, in the following, we investigate the case that the informed and uninformed susceptible individuals take different types of mobility patterns by tuning the parameters γ > 0 S and γ < 0 A or vice versa, and we explore their impacts on the final prevalence of infection (Fig. 6) . In this work, we have investigated the interplay between the disease spread and the information propagation by focusing on the role of the information efficiency in reducing the risk of infection, and that of mobility patterns. ./cache/cord-285217-gw8ldhu6.txt ./txt/cord-285217-gw8ldhu6.txt
