Statistics & Probability Letters, 1992, vol. 13, issue 5, 401-404

Abstract: We present a method for finding the transition probabilities of a 'modified' general stochastic epidemic model containing two infection rates. The method uses interarrival times between events, following Billard, Lacayo and Langberg (1979), and a path counting technique of Kryscio (1975).
