Primes¶
- Propagation
- Conversely, a harmful spread (disease, misinformation, panic) can be slowed or halted not by attacking the source alone, but by restructuring the medium: isolation, quarantine, circuit-breakers, fact-checking infrastructure, as Pastor-Satorras and Vespignani (2002) demonstrate via targeted immunization of high-degree nodes in scale-free networks.
This sourceDemonstrates that random immunization fails on scale-free networks while targeted immunization of high-degree hubs sharply reduces vulnerability—a structural intervention on the medium that halts harmful propagation.
