Simulation of disease transmission in a population for CAMS CSC's 1-week Kickoff Hackathon.

Roadmap:

1. population density (e.g. rural, suburban, urban)
2. reduce motion once infected, based on a quadratic curve?
3. add r0/adjust beta/gamma for real-world disease, e.g. covid
4. add info box when a dot is clicked to show time of infection, status, location, sociability, etc.
5. add reported cases, hospitalizations, online trends
6. add mortality
7. add city-specific data, e.g. LA
8. replace beta with something more real-world, e.g. based on distance-time

Added:

1. add time to recovery
2. color map of dot to show stage of infection
3. add "sociability" to adjust motion
4. show SIR live plot
