The Economic Implications of a Network SIR-Macro Model of Epidemics

We embed social networks in a conventional SIR-Macro framework. The network effect amplifies the negative effects of an epidemic. Greater connectedness at work has a stronger recessionary effect. The average degree in the network (disease transmission technology) can be interpreted as policies such as social distance and lockdowns (mandatory face masks/vaccines)
