Cross-reactive memory T cells and herd immunity to SARS-CoV-2

open access: yesNature reviews. Immunology, 2020
Immunity is a multifaceted phenomenon. For T cell-mediated memory responses to SARS-CoV-2, it is relevant to consider their impact both on COVID-19 disease severity and on viral spread in a population.

The disease-induced herd immunity level for Covid-19 is substantially lower than the classical herd immunity level [PDF]

open access: yesmedRxiv, 2020
Most countries are suffering severely from the ongoing covid-19 pandemic despite various levels of preventive measures. A common question is if and when a country or region will reach herd immunity h. The classical herd immunity level hC is defined as hC=

Bimodule herds

open access: yesJournal of Algebra, 2009
The notion of a bimodule herd is introduced and studied. A bimodule herd consists of a $B$-$A$ bimodule, its formal dual, called a pen, and a map, called a shepherd, which satisfies untiality and coassociativity conditions. It is shown that every bimodule herd gives rise to a pair of corings and coactions.

Herd Immunity and Implications for SARS-CoV-2 Control.

open access: yesJournal of the American Medical Association (JAMA), 2020
Herd immunity, also known as indirect protection, community immunity, or community protection, refers to the protection of susceptible individuals against an infection when a sufficiently large proportion of immune individuals exist in a population.

The Effect of Farming System Type on Piglet Production

open access: yesActa Universitatis Agriculturae et Silviculturae Mendelianae Brunensis, 2020
Reproductive performance of sows is the main factor influencing the profitability of piglet production, and simultaneously it is a basic indicator of farm management quality.

Between-herd variation in resilience and relations to herd performance [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Dairy Science, 2021
Resilient cows are minimally affected in their functioning by infections and other disturbances, and recover quickly. Herd management is expected to have an effect on disturbances and the resilience of cows, and this effect was investigated in this study. Two resilience indicators were first recorded on individual cows. The effect of herd-year on these

Controlling the Herd: Applications of Herding Theory [PDF]

open access: yesResearch Papers in Economics, 2001
The literature on informational cascades and herding theory has for a decade focused on the externality and suboptimal outcomes generated from decision-making when spaces are coarser than private information spaces. Much of the output has therefore been positive, not normative.
