Description: # Pandemic
        
        An agent model in which commuting, compliance, testing and contagion parameters drive
        infection in a population of thousands of millions. Agents follow Ornstein-Uhlenbeck processes
        in the plane and collisions drive transmission. Results are stored at 
        <a href="https://www.swarmprediction.com/about.html">SwarmPrediction.com</a> for further analysis, and can be retrieved by anyone.

        ### Motivaton 
        
        Covered in this [post](https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/pandemic-minimalist-2d-ornstein-uhlenbeck-model-peter-cotton-phd) with 
        the followup [here](https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/dear-new-zealand-heres-how-simulate-covid-19-all-your-cotton-phd/) where possible
        improvements are also discussed and acknowledgements are made.   
        
        The author is not an epidemiologist. The model expresses no opinions
        on the health aspects of COVID-19. The model offers a novel motion model with some interesting
        analytic properties also discussed in the [article](https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/dear-new-zealand-heres-how-simulate-covid-19-all-your-cotton-phd/) referenced
        above.
        
        ### Usage
        
            pip install pandemic
            >> from pandemic import run
            >> run()
            
        See also <a href="https://github.com/microprediction/pandemic/tree/master/examples">examples</a> of
        library use and <a href="https://github.com/microprediction/pandemic/tree/master/examples_of_surrogate_use">examples of using the public
        database of simulations</a> generated by this model. 
        
        ### Crowd-sourced surrogate model 
        
        See <a href="https://www.swarmprediction.com/about.html">SwarmPrediction.com</a> for an explanation of 
        a SETI-like project to crowd-source a surrogate model. 
        
        ### Basic elements of the model
