Abstract
En 中文
This article investigates the spread of infectious diseases within a networked community by integrating epidemic transmission and public opinion dynamics. We propose a novel discrete-time networked susceptible–infectious–susceptible (SIS) epidemic model coupled with opinion dynamics that includes stubborn agents, capturing the interplay between perceived and actual epidemic severity. We introduce the SIS–opinion reproduction number to assess epidemic severity and analyze conditions for disease eradication and the global stability of endemic equilibria. In addition, we explore opinion-based intervention strategies, providing a framework for policymakers to design effective prevention measures. Numerical examples are provided to illustrate our theoretical findings and the model's practical implications.
