The Dynamic Effective Reproductive Number of COVID-19 during the Epidemic in Iran

open access: yesIranian Journal of Public Health, 2022
Background: We aimed to determine the generation time, the best model for estimating reproduction number (R), and to estimate the basic reproduction number (R0) and effective reproduction number (Rt) for COVID-19 in Iran.

The basic reproduction number for scrapie [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series B: Biological Sciences, 1999
The basic reproduction number R0 provides a quantitative assessment of the ability of an infectious agent to invade a susceptible host population. A mathematical expression for R0 is derived based on a recently developed model for the spread of scrapie through a flock of sheep.

A network immuno-epidemiological model of HIV and opioid epidemics

open access: yesMathematical Biosciences and Engineering, 2023
In this paper, we introduce a novel multi-scale network model of two epidemics: HIV infection and opioid addiction. The HIV infection dynamics is modeled on a complex network. We determine the basic reproduction number of HIV infection, $ \mathcal{R}_{v}

Estimation of the basic reproduction number, average incubation time, asymptomatic infection rate, and case fatality rate for COVID‐19: Meta‐analysis and sensitivity analysis

open access: yesmedRxiv, 2020
The coronavirus disease‐2019 (COVID‐19) has been found to be caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS‐CoV‐2). However, comprehensive knowledge of COVID‐19 remains incomplete and many important features are still unknown.

Dengue disease, basic reproduction number and control [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Computer Mathematics, 2012
Dengue is one of the major international public health concerns. Although progress is underway, developing a vaccine against the disease is challenging. Thus, the main approach to fight the disease is vector control. A model for the transmission of Dengue disease is presented.
