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 ...

The basic reproduction number for scrapie [PDF]

Proceedings 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.

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
