Dynamics of multi-stage infections on networks [PDF]

, 2015
This paper investigates the dynamics of infectious diseases with a nonexponentially distributed infectious period. This is achieved by considering a multistage infection model on networks. Using pairwise approximation with a standard closure, a number of

A three-state coupled Markov switching model for COVID-19 outbreaks across Quebec based on hospital admissions [PDF]

arXiv, 2023
Recurrent COVID-19 outbreaks have placed immense strain on the hospital system in Quebec. We develop a Bayesian three-state coupled Markov switching model to analyze COVID-19 outbreaks across Quebec based on admissions in the 30 largest hospitals. Within each catchment area, we assume the existence of three states for the disease: absence, a new state ...

An outbreak of Legionnaires' disease in Gloucester [PDF]

Epidemiology and Infection, 1991
SUMMARYFourteen people living in or near the city of Gloucester fell ill with Legionnaires' disease caused by Legionella pneumophila serogroup (SG) 1 between 27 August and 27 October 1986. Another patient had fallen ill on 30 May. Nine of the 15 were diagnosed retrospectively during a case finding exercise. There were three deaths.

BC‐11 is a covalent TMPRSS2 fragment inhibitor that impedes SARS‐CoV‐2 host cell entry

Archiv der Pharmazie, Volume 356, Issue 1, January 2023., 2023
Drug repurposing has the potential to accelerate the discovery of TMPRSS2 inhibitors acting as COVID‐19 antivirals. In this regard, a low throughput screening led to the identification of BC‐11 as a covalent TMPRSS2 fragment inhibitor (IC50 = 1.44 µM), displaying significant SARS‐CoV‐2 entry inhibition (EC50 = 66 µM). Abstract Host cell entry of severe

Travel restrictions and infectious disease outbreaks

Journal of Travel Medicine, 2020
Background A key purpose of the IHR is to prevent unwarranted interruptions to trade and travel during large and/or transnational infectious disease outbreaks. Nevertheless, such outbreaks continue to disrupt the travel industry.

BIOPAK Flasher: Epidemic disease monitoring and detection in Pakistan using text mining [PDF]

arXiv, 2021
Infectious disease outbreak has a significant impact on morbidity, mortality and can cause economic instability of many countries. As global trade is growing, goods and individuals are expected to travel across the border, an infected epidemic area carrier can pose a great danger to his hostile.

Inferring Spatial Source of Disease Outbreaks using Maximum Entropy [PDF]

, 2021
Mathematical modeling of disease outbreaks can infer the future trajectory of an epidemic, which can inform policy decisions. Another task is inferring the origin of a disease, which is relatively difficult with current mathematical models. Such frameworks -- across varying levels of complexity -- are typically sensitive to input data on epidemic ...
