Scenario analysis for potential community spread of Andes virus (ANDV). [PDF]

open access: yesEuro Surveill
We simulated the potential community spread of Andes virus (ANDV) following the introduction of a single infectious individual in a generic population, based on epidemiological parameters derived from a human-to-human historical outbreak. Under current available evidence, our analyses suggest that, within 4 months from the index case’s symptom onset ...
