%% Problem Statement:   VIRUS Infection Model
%% Introduction
% There is a single infected person in your town of 1-million people.   Because of your great MATLAB skills, you have been asked to calculate the peak number of people that would be infected at any given time as a function of the contact rate (how many people are infected by the average infected person each day).
%
% This is an important number as it determines the number of patients the hospitals will have to service on their busiest day and it enables you to understand the impact of social distancing.   There are multiple calculations to do to complete this task.   In this lesson, you will step through each of them, utilizing your basic MATLAB skills, and develop the answer.
% Major calculations you will need to do include:
% Model the spread of a virus over time
% Determine peak number of infected persons at any given time
% Repeat this calculation for different contact rates
% But each calculation has a few steps of its own.   In the following pages, we'll step through all of them.
