The SIS epidemic model with Markovian switching [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Population systems are often subject to environmental noise. Motivated by Takeuchi et al. (2006), we will discuss in this paper the effect of telegraph noise on the well-known SIS epidemic model.

Extinction and recurrence of multi-group SEIR epidemic [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
In this paper, we consider a class of multi-group SEIR epidemic models with stochastic perturbations. By the method of stochastic Lyapunov functions, we study their asymptotic behavior in terms of the intensity of the stochastic perturbations and the ...

Risk assessment for COVID-19 pandemic in Taiwan

open access: yesInternational Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2021
Background and objectives: Event-based surveillance and rapid risk assessment for acute public health events are essential in emerging infectious disease control. Since detecting the unusual signal in Wuhan in December 2019, Taiwan has been aligning risk

On the Duration of an Epidemic

open access: yesDifferential Equations and Dynamical Systems, 2022
A stochastic SIR (Susceptible, Infected, Recovered) model for the spread of a non-lethal disease is considered. The size of the population is constant. The problem of computing the moment-generating function of the random time until all members of the population are recovered is solved in special cases.

Accuracy of models for the 2001 foot-and-mouth epidemic [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Since 2001 models of the spread of foot-and-mouth disease, supported by the data from the UK epidemic, have been expounded as some of the best examples of problem-driven epidemic models.

Eight challenges for network epidemic models [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Networks offer a fertile framework for studying the spread of infection in human and animal populations. However, owing to the inherent high-dimensionality of networks themselves, modelling transmission through networks is mathematically and ...

The Dramaturgy of Epidemics [PDF]

open access: yesBulletin of the History of Medicine, 2020
My essay focuses on Charles Rosenberg's provocative and enduring ideal type of epidemic drama in three acts, which he assembled from a vast knowledge of disease history that stretched from the end of the seventeenth century to his then-present pandemic, HIV/AIDS of the 1980s.

Antiviral activity of diallyl trisulfide against H9N2 avian influenza virus infection in vitro and in vivo

open access: yesVirology Journal, 2021
Background Diallyl trisulfide (DATS) is a garlic-derived organosulfur compound. As it has been shown to have anti-viral activity, we hypothesized that it may alleviate infections caused by H9N2 avian influenza virus (AIV), which is prevalent in poultry ...

Epidemic modelling by ripple-spreading network and genetic algorithm [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Mathematical analysis and modelling is central to infectious disease epidemiology. This paper, inspired by the natural ripple-spreading phenomenon, proposes a novel ripple-spreading network model for the study of infectious disease transmission.
