Query: The role of time scale in the spreading of asymmetrically interacting
  diseases   Diseases and other contagion phenomena in nature and society can interact
asymmetrically, such that one can benefit from the other, which in turn impairs
the first, in analogy with predator-prey systems. Here, we consider two models
for interacting disease-like dynamics with asymmetric interactions and
different associated time scales. Using rate equations for homogeneously mixed
populations, we show that the stationary prevalences and phase diagrams of each
model behave differently with respect to variations of the relative time
scales. We also characterize in detail the regime where transient oscillations
are observed, a pattern that is inherent to asymmetrical interactions but often
ignored in the literature. Our results contribute to a better understanding of
disease dynamics in particular, and interacting processes in general, and could
provide interesting insights for real-world applications, most notably, the
interplay between the dynamics of fact-checked and fake news.
