Graphic representation of the model being used for yaws transmission. Each house shape indicates a household, and the number of shapes inside each indicates number of persons. Each person is either susceptible (S, green), infectious (I, red), or asymptomatic (A, blue). Close-up image at right shows details of model parameters (see Tables 1, 2).
