Forecasting The Decision Based On Risk Perception Using Bayesian Game Theory Approach In Preventing Hand, Foot And Mouth Disease (Hfmd) In Pulau Pinang, Malaysia

Hand, foot, and mouth disease (HFMD) is amongst common diseases which often occurs in outbreaks and up to now, there is no effective vaccine yet to be found. Known to be caused by enterovirus usually typed Coxsackie virus A16 and Enterovirus 71, this disease is common among infants and children belo...
