Epidemic impact in the containment scenario.

We consider scale-free networks with an exponent , and , and size N = 10⁴. The recovery probability is set in . 1st and 3rd rows display the fraction of vaccinated (top) and recovered (bottom) individuals at the asymptotic state of the epidemic. Each line corresponds to different values of vaccination radius, , with a probability of vaccination . Panel on top. Dotted lines are theoretical predictions, and symbols correspond to stochastic simulations. 2nd and 4th rows: Heatmaps show the dependence of the vaccinated (top) and recovered (bottom) individuals on both the probability of vaccination ω (y-axis) and the virulence of the disease β (x-axis) for the specific case of r = 2.
