A simple explanation for the low impact of border control as a countermeasure to the spread of an infectious disease

Abstract
A simple model for the effect of border control or travel restrictions is proposed. It can be used to predict the corresponding results in quite complex disease spread models and has the advantage of providing easy qualitative understanding of the effects of this kind of intervention.
