Abstract

We propose a variant of the SEIZ mathematical model originally proposed by Bettencourt et al, where the rumor spreads between two different scenarios Z1 and Z2 which do not share information with each other. This model is studied analytically where we include a new parameter μ for forgetting a rumor. We show results that were obtained using this model for a certain case in Venezuela. Finally, we also provide the numerical code for the numerical integration in order to provide a useful tool for others in their investigations.
