Journal ArticleDOI
Antibiotic resistance increases with local temperature
Derek R. MacFadden,Sarah F. McGough,David N. Fisman,Mauricio Santillana,John S. Brownstein,John S. Brownstein +5 more
TL;DR: The findings suggest that current forecasts of the burden of antibiotic resistance could be significant underestimates in the face of a growing population and climate change4.
Journal ArticleDOI
Forecasting Zika Incidence in the 2016 Latin America Outbreak Combining Traditional Disease Surveillance with Search, Social Media, and News Report Data.
Sarah F. McGough,John S. Brownstein,Jared B. Hawkins,Jared B. Hawkins,Mauricio Santillana,Mauricio Santillana +5 more
TL;DR: Internet-based data streams can be used as timely and complementary ways to assess the dynamics of the outbreak of Zika virus and show the predictive power of these data and a dynamic multivariable approach.
Journal ArticleDOI
Antibiotic Resistance Increases with Local Temperature
TL;DR: The effect of temperature on antibiotic resistance was robust across almost all classes of antibiotics and pathogens and strengthened over time, suggesting that current forecasts of the burden of antibiotic resistance could be significant underestimates in the face of a growing population and warming planet.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nowcasting by Bayesian Smoothing: A flexible, generalizable model for real-time epidemic tracking.
TL;DR: It is shown that introducing a temporal relationship between cases considerably improves performance when the reporting delay distribution is time-varying, and trade-offs in the role of moving windows to accurately capture changes in the delay are identified.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rates of increase of antibiotic resistance and ambient temperature in Europe: a cross-national analysis of 28 countries between 2000 and 2016
Sarah F. McGough,Sarah F. McGough,Derek R. MacFadden,Derek R. MacFadden,Mohammad W. Hattab,Kåre Mølbak,Kåre Mølbak,Mauricio Santillana,Mauricio Santillana +8 more
TL;DR: Evidence is found of a long-term effect of ambient minimum temperature on antibiotic resistance rate increases in Europe, which might considerably influence antibiotic resistance growth rates, and explain geographic differences observed in cross-sectional studies.
