Basic reproduction number for the Brazilian Spotted Fever
Journal of Theoretical Biology, 2018 Brazilian Spotted Fever (BSF) is an emerging and lethal disease in South America which basic reproduction number (R0) is unknown. Calculating R0 for this disease is crucial to design control interventions and prevent human deaths. BSF endemic areas are related to the presence of capybaras Hydrochoerus hydrochaeris, amplifier hosts of Rickettsia ...

On the basic reproduction number in semi-Markov switching networks [PDF]
Journal of Biological Dynamics, 2021 Basic reproduction number $ \mathcal {R}_0 $ in network epidemic dynamics is studied in the case of stochastic regime-switching networks. For generality, the dependence between successive networks is considered to follow a continuous time semi-Markov ...

Estimation of Hospital Potential Capacity and Basic Reproduction Number [PDF]
Abstract and Applied Analysis, 2014 In order to reflect the population covered by institutional medical services, the concept of hospital potential capacity is proposed and a formula for its estimation is developed based on a population dynamic model.

Basic reproduction number and effective reproduction number for North Cyprus for fighting Covid-19
Қарағанды университетінің хабаршысы. Математика сериясы, 2020 The aim of this paper is to show how North Cyprus fought with Covid-19 by using R0 and Rt, as herd immunity. For that purpose, we used a SEIR model for basic reproduction number, R0, and calculated Rt values by using R0 values. North Cyprus is the first

Estimating epidemic exponential growth rate and basic reproduction number
Infectious Disease Modelling, 2020 The initial exponential growth rate of an epidemic is an important measure of the severeness of the epidemic, and is also closely related to the basic reproduction number.

Basic reproduction number of SEIRS model on regular lattice
Mathematical Biosciences and Engineering, 2019 In this paper we give a basic reproduction number $\mathscr{R}_0$ of an SEIRS model on regular lattice using next-generation matrix approach. Our result is straightforward but differs from the basic reproduction numbers for various fundamental epidemic ...

Deterministic epidemic models overestimate the basic reproduction number of observed outbreaks [PDF]
Infectious Disease ModellingThe basic reproduction number, R0, is a well-known quantifier of epidemic spread. However, a class of existing methods for estimating R0 from incidence data early in the epidemic can lead to an over-estimation of this quantity.

Efficient numerical computation of the basic reproduction number for\n structured populations [PDF]
Journal of Computational and Applied Mathematics, 2020 As widely known, the basic reproduction number plays a key role in weighing birth/infection and death/recovery processes in several models of population dynamics. In this general setting, its characterization as the spectral radius of next generation operators is rather elegant, but simultaneously poses serious obstacles to its practical determination.
