Vaccination behavior by coupling the epidemic spreading with the human decision under the game theory

作者：

Highlights：

• In this paper, we establish a two-layered multiplex network model which combines SIR epidemic process and vaccination decision-making.

• We discover that imitating behavior would restrain the increase of herd immunity,

• The model is verified by Monte Carlo simulations and mean-field equa- tions, respectively.

• A suitable quantity of conformity motivated individual could be beneficial to save the social costs.
