Spatiotemporal Behaviour of SIR Models with Cross-Diffusion and Vital Dynamics [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
Contemporary epidemiological models often involve spatial variation, providing an avenue to investigate the averaged dynamics of individual movements. In this work, we extend a recent model by Vaziry, Kolokolnikov, and Kevrekidis [Royal Society Open Science 9 (10), 2022] that included, in both infected and susceptible population dynamics equations, a ...

Relating Recent Infection Prevalence to Incidence with a Sub-population of Non-progressors [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2008
We present a new analysis of relationships between disease incidence and the prevalence of an experimentally defined state of `recent infection'. This leads to a clean separation between biological parameters (properties of disease progression as reflected in a test for recent infection), which need to be calibrated, and epidemiological state variables,
