Modeling Infectious Diseases in Humans and Animals
TL;DR: Mathematical modeling of infectious dis-eases has progressed dramatically over the past 3 decades and continues to be a valuable tool at the nexus of mathematics, epidemiol-ogy, and infectious diseases research.
Journal ArticleDOI
Seasonality and the dynamics of infectious diseases.
Sonia Altizer,Andrew P. Dobson,Parviez R. Hosseini,Peter J. Hudson,Mercedes Pascual,Pejman Rohani +5 more
TL;DR: Examples from human and wildlife disease systems are reviewed to illustrate the challenges inherent in understanding the mechanisms and impacts of seasonal environmental drivers, and to highlight general insights that are relevant to other ecological interactions.
Journal ArticleDOI
A simple model for complex dynamical transitions in epidemics.
TL;DR: This work has shown that measles is a natural ecological system that exhibits different dynamical transitions at different times and places, yet all of these transitions can be predicted as bifurcations of a single nonlinear model.
Journal ArticleDOI
Appropriate Models for the Management of Infectious Diseases
TL;DR: Analytical methods are used to show that ignoring the latent period or making the common assumption of exponentially distributed latent and infectious periods always results in underestimating the basic reproductive ratio of an infection from outbreak data.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ecological and immunological determinants of dengue epidemics
Helen J. Wearing,Pejman Rohani +1 more
TL;DR: To generate epidemics with the characteristic signatures observed in data, it is found that a combination of seasonal variation in vector demography and a short-lived period of cross-immunity is sufficient.
