Abstract
⺠We add births, deaths and human movement to a household model of disease spread. ⺠We show that demographic movements can affect patterns of infection and immunity. ⺠When immunity is life-long, births are the key driver of household immunity. ⺠Household sizes and crude birth rates influence household infection patterns.
