Table 2. The effect of the delay, Δ, on dynamics of infecteds^*.

Δ	Outcome
0	Monotone convergence to $\hat{I}$
1	Damped oscillation to $\hat{I}$
2	$\hat{I}$ locally unstable; I₀ < 72 bounded oscillation; I₀ > 73 unbounded oscillation
3	$\hat{I}$ locally unstable; collapse (−∞)
4	$\hat{I}$ locally unstable; collapse (−∞)

* In all cases, N = 10, 000, b₀ = 0.05, γ = 0.08, $\hat{c} = 0.0015$ , α = 0.375, $\hat{I} = 35.718$ . I₀ = 1 unless stated.
