9. The core group idea
Core groups bring a
population over an
epidemic threshold,
even though it, on
average, wouldn’t be.
Being a member of a core
group = being important
for the disease. But any
individual in the core
group is insignificant for
the core group.

13. The hypotheses
Core groups can be captured by static network structure.
Structure & dynamics can be coupled by the SIS survival time.
For many vaccinees, the core group would be most important.

Vaccination-impact very correlated with degree.
