Vaccinated epidemic-wave final size

ID: vaccinated-epidemic-wave-final-size

For a pulse in which only infectives diffuse, the travelling-wave equations imply and . Integrating total biological population balance with vanishing infective derivative at both infinities gives the displayed final-size relation. Its nontrivial root requires . Thus deaths are exactly , while live density behind the wave is . The root is independent of in this particular pulse model.
