The effect of travel restrictions on the spread of the 2019 novel coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak.

TL;DR: The results suggest that early detection, hand washing, self-isolation, and household quarantine will likely be more effective than travel restrictions at mitigating this pandemic, and sustained 90% travel restrictions to and from mainland China only modestly affect the epidemic trajectory unless combined with a 50% or higher reduction of transmission in the community.
Journal ArticleDOI

Containing pandemic influenza at the source.

TL;DR: Investigation of the effectiveness of targeted antiviral prophylaxis, quarantine, and pre-vaccination in containing an emerging influenza strain at the source showed that a prepared response with targeted antivirals would have a high probability of containing the disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Containing Pandemic Influenza with Antiviral Agents

TL;DR: Targeted antiviral prophylaxis has potential as an effective measure for containing influenza until adequate quantities of vaccine are available and is nearly as effective as vaccinating 80% of the population.
Journal ArticleDOI

Antibody-dependent enhancement of severe dengue disease in humans

TL;DR: Using multiple statistical approaches to study a long-term pediatric cohort in Nicaragua, it is shown that risk of severe dengue disease is highest within a narrow range of preexisting anti-DENV antibody titers, which has major implications for vaccines against flaviviruses.
