Virulence has a predictable periodicity. (A) The autocorrelation function plot, RMM(t), shows a periodic pattern over time (red dots). (B) The accumulated-events function, Ac(t), also shows a periodic shape (red dots) and runs parallel to the identity equation (y = x; red line), demonstrating its predictability. These results suggest the deterministic and predictable nature of virulence in our host-pathogen model.
