**FORGE Information Operations Monitor** — Analysis generated from information-ops-sim propagation models.
## Propagation Analysis
Using SIR/SEIR epidemiological models calibrated from information-ops-sim:
- **Basic reproduction number (R₀)**: 1.7
- **Peak infection time**: 49 hours
- **Persuasion probability**: 27.6%
- **Doubling time**: 18 hours
- **Estimated reach**: 11M users
## Bot Detection Signatures
- Botometer average score: 0.9
