Average result of 50 Netlogo Simulation_Agent Based Simulation

I run an infectious disease spread model similar to "VIRUS" model in the model library changing the "infectiousness".

I did 20 runs each for infectiousness values 98% , 95% , 93% and the Maximum infected count was 74.05 , 73 ,78.9 respectively. (peak was at tick 38 for all 3 infectiousness values)

[I took the average of the infected count for each tick and took the maximum of these averages as the "maximum infected".]

I was expecting the maximum infected count to decrease when the infectiousness is reduced, but it didn't. As per what I understood this happens, because I considered the average values of each simulation run. (It is like I am considering a new simulation run with average infected count for each tick ).

I want to say that, I am considering all 20 simulation runs. Is there a way to do that other than the way I used the average?
