Kira Henshaw, Corina Constantinescu and Olivier Menoukeu-Pamen (left to right) investigate the effects of spousal death on the surviving partner’s mortality and how their model could be applied to disease outbreaks in closed communities such as care homes. This was featured in the August 2020 edition of The Actuary, including on the front page.
It is based on their Risks article: https://www.mdpi.com/2227-9091/8/1/17
