School Closures and Student Contact Patterns [PDF]
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2011 To determine how school closure for pandemic (H1N1) 2009 affected students' contact patterns, we conducted a retrospective questionnaire survey at a UK school 2 weeks after the school reopened. School closure was associated with a 65% reduction in the mean total number of contacts for each student.

Patterns of human social contact and contact with animals in Shanghai, China [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2019 AbstractEast Asia is as a principal hotspot for emerging zoonotic infections. Understanding the likely pathways for their emergence and spread requires knowledge on human-human and human-animal contacts, but such studies are rare. We used self-completed and interviewer-completed contact diaries to quantify patterns of these contacts for 965 individuals

Quantifying heterogeneous contact patterns in Japan: a social contact survey [PDF]
Theoretical Biology and Medical Modelling, 2019 Social contact surveys can greatly help in quantifying the heterogeneous patterns of infectious disease transmission. The present study aimed to conduct a contact survey in Japan, offering estimates of contact by age and location and validating a social contact matrix using a seroepidemiological dataset of influenza.An internet-based questionnaire ...
