Table 3. Result of the average of several variables over 1000 runs of collective infestations for scenario 1 (group of 20 heads with thresholds for treatment start randomly chosen between 10 and 20 mobile lice).
pt | total | prevalence | total | average duration | median duration |
mobile | transferred | of infestation | of infestation | ||
0.010 | 3.77 | 4.8% | 0.14 | 28.88 | 24 |
0.050 | 4.91 | 6.3% | 1.5 | 39.92 | 28 |
0.075 | 7.82 | 9.1% | 8.68 | 68.43 | 32.5 |
0.100 | 13.07 | 14.1% | 46.21 | 149.15 | 40 |
In the first column the probability of transfer is indicated. The second column gives the average total daily number of mobile lice present. The third is the prevalence, i.e., the proportion of infested heads. Fourth column indicates the average daily number of lice transferred from one head to another. The fifth and sixth columns give the average and median duration of collective infestations, respectively.
