Joint Bayesian Nowcasting of Severe Acute Respiratory Illness and COVID‐19 Positives in Brazil

Statistics in Medicine, Volume 45, Issue 8-9, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Surveillance of severe acute respiratory illness (SARI) in Brazil provides an early warning system for respiratory outbreaks, including COVID‐19, and statistical nowcasting methods are vital for correcting long and variable reporting delays that would otherwise hinder timely decision‐making. Coherent joint prediction of SARI and COVID‐positive

West Nile Virus Transmission Suitability Modeling for Culex pipiens via Temperature and Humidity

GeoHealth, Volume 10, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract West Nile Virus (WNV) is the leading cause of mosquito‐borne disease in the United States, yet predicting its transmission remains a significant challenge for public health officials. Many studies use correlative statistical models to predict disease cases using temperature and humidity, but accessible mechanistic approaches that simulate ...

Heatwaves Constrain the Future Persistence of Mosquito Vectors in Europe

Global Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 4, April 2026.
Climate warming is intensifying heatwaves across Europe, with the potential to constrain the future distribution of major arboviral mosquito vectors. Using life‐stage‐specific upper thermal limits and an integrative experimental‐modelling framework, we show that extreme heat may reduce the persistence of Culex pipiens and, to a lesser extent, Aedes ...
