An epidemiological model of East Coast Fever in African livestock
Ecological Modelling, 2009An epidemiological model of the dynamics of East Coast Fever (ECF) in East Africa caused by the protozoan parasite Theileria parva and transmitted by the brown-ear tick Rhipicephalus appendiculatus was developed. In the model, ticks are assigned to either on-host or off-host categories both of which differ in their capacity to receive and transmit the ...
