The role of co-infections and secondary infections in patients with COVID-19

open access: yesPneumonia, 2021
Background It has been recognised for a considerable time-period, that viral respiratory infections predispose patients to bacterial infections, and that these co-infections have a worse outcome than either infection on its own.

Infections

open access: yes, 2002
Infection, in particular by respiratory viruses, plays an important role in triggering exacerbations and has also been implicated in the etiology of asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). This chapter reviews the epidemiological evidence that implicates infectious pathogens as triggers.

PDE model for multi-patch epidemic models with migration and infection-age dependent infectivity [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2023
We study a stochastic epidemic model with multiple patches (locations), where individuals in each patch are categorized into three compartments, Susceptible, Infected and Recovered/Removed, and may migrate from one patch to another in any of the compartments.

A sharp threshold for a modified bootstrap percolation with recovery [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Statistical Physics, Volume 157, Issue 3 (2014), pp 531-570, 2015
Bootstrap percolation is a type of cellular automaton on graphs, introduced as a simple model of the dynamics of ferromagnetism. Vertices in a graph can be in one of two states: `healthy' or `infected' and from an initial configuration of states, healthy vertices become infected by local rules.
