Abstract
This is a comment on Reinhart's "Review of Self-Exciting Spatio-Temporal Point Processes and Their Applications" (arXiv:1708.02647v1). I contribute some experiences from modelling the spread of infectious diseases. Furthermore, I try to complement the review with regard to the availability of software for the described models, which I think is essential in "paving the way for new uses".
