In this model, the whole population was divided according to the different blood groups (A, B, O, or AB) into four interacting subpopulations NA, NB, NO and NAB. For each subpopulation N = S(t) + I(t) + R(t) where S(t), I(t), and R(t) represent, for each blood group, the number of individuals susceptible, infected, or recovered at time t, respectively. Four different populations reflecting the variability in blood groups distributions were studied (Table I): Chinese from Hong Kong, Aïnu from Japan, Amerindians and white Americans from the United States.","tracks":[]}
