Digital Herd Immunity and COVID-19 [PDF]
Physical Biology, 2020 A population can be immune to epidemics even if not all of its individual members are immune to the disease, just as long as sufficiently many are immune—this is the traditional notion of herd immunity. In the smartphone era a population can be immune to epidemics even if not a single one of its members is immune to the disease—a notion we propose to ...

Individual variation in susceptibility or exposure to SARS-CoV-2 lowers the herd immunity threshold
medRxiv, 2020 As severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) spreads, the susceptible subpopulation is depleted causing the rate at which new cases occur to decline.

The potential for vaccination-induced herd immunity against the SARS-CoV-2 B.1.1.7 variant
Euro surveillance : bulletin Europeen sur les maladies transmissibles = European communicable disease bulletin, 2021 We assess the feasibility of reaching the herd immunity threshold against SARS-CoV-2 through vaccination, considering vaccine effectiveness (VE), transmissibility of the virus and the level of pre-existing immunity in populations, as well as their age ...

Advanced Materials Technologies, Volume 10, Issue 6, March 18, 2025.This review focuses on the application of synthetic biodegradable microarray patches (MAPs) in sustained drug delivery. Compared to conventional MAPs which release drugs into the skin in an immediate manner, these implantable MAPs release drugs into skin microcirculation gradually as the biodegradable polymers degrade, thus offering sustained release ...

Beyond Herd Immunity Against Strategic Attackers
IEEE Access, 2020 Herd immunity, one of the most fundamental concepts in network epidemics, occurs when a large fraction of the population of devices is immune against a virus or malware.

Infection-acquired versus vaccine-acquired immunity in an SIRWS model [PDF]
, 2017 Despite high vaccine coverage, pertussis has re-emerged as a public health concern in many countries. One hypothesis posed for re-emergence is the waning of immunity.

Advanced Optical Materials, Volume 13, Issue 8, March 13, 2025.Chalcogenide optical PCMs have gathered interest for their potential in compact, non‐volatile optics and photonics. Free‐space PCM metasurfaces require new considerations from phase change memory that need to be addressed for reliable scale‐up. Several failure mechanisms pertaining to free‐space PCM devices and layout methods are isolated to prevent ...

Predicting Directions of Changes in Genotype Proportions Between Norovirus Seasons in Japan
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019 The norovirus forecasting system (NOROCAST) has been developed for predicting directions of changes in genotype proportions between human norovirus (HuNoV) seasons in Japan through modeling herd immunity to structural protein 1 (VP1).
