Abstract An epidemic model with awareness among households is proposed to explore the impact of delayed global intervention and local awareness on early epidemic dynamics with the two levels of mixing structure. A number of explicit results are derived by focusing on different transition rates induced by delayed awareness perception in path integral of Markov chains. The different influences of global awareness and local awareness on early dynamics are assessed by introducing delays between the initial infection and the deployment of awareness. We show that the local awareness is less sensitive to the delay than global awareness when the contact number is considered.
