The basic SIR model is written as a system of ordinary differential equations describing transfers between compartments: susceptibles decrease by infection, infecteds gain infections and lose cases by recovery or removal, and recovereds increase by removal from the infected class. The equations are $\frac{dS}{dt}=-\beta SI$, $\frac{dI}{dt}=\beta SI-\gamma I$, and $\frac{dR}{dt}=\gamma I$.

Conditions: The population is modeled as well mixed.; The dynamics are represented by global rate equations rather than spatially resolved equations.
