ABSTRACT
With outbreaks of epidemics, an enormous loss of life and property has been caused. Based on the influence of disease transmission and information propagation on the transmission characteristics of infectious diseases, in this paper, a fractional-order SIR epidemic model is put forward on a two-layer weighted network. The local stability of the disease-free equilibrium is investigated. Moreover, a conclusion is obtained that there is no endemic equilibrium. Since the elderly and the children have fewer social tiers, a targeted immunity control that is based on age structure is proposed. Finally, an example is presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the theoretical results. These studies contribute to a more comprehensive understanding of the epidemic transmission mechanism and play a positive guiding role in the prevention and control of some epidemics.
