Exploring the Effect of Misinformation on Infectious Disease Transmission
Systems, 2022 Vaccines are one of the safest medical interventions in history and can protect against infectious diseases and ensure important health benefits. Despite these advantages, health professionals and policymakers face significant challenges in terms of ...

A mathematical model of infectious disease transmission [PDF]
ITM Web of Conferences, 2020 In this paper we consider a three-dimensional nonlinear system which models the dynamics of a population during an epidemic disease. The considered model is a SIS-type system in which a recovered individual automatically becomes a susceptible one.

Nature Communications, 2021 The true number of infections from SARS-Cov-2 is unknown and believed to exceed the reported numbers by several fold. National testing policies, in particular, can strongly affect the proportion of undetected cases.

The Universal Theory for Multiscale Modelling of Infectious Disease Dynamics
Mathematics, 2023 The replication-transmission relativity theory, currently used to inform the development of multiscale models of infectious disease dynamics, needs a revision and extension to accommodate new basic science and clinical information about infectious ...

The transmission mechanism theory of disease dynamics: Its aims, assumptions and limitations
Infectious Disease Modelling, 2023 Most of the progress in the development of single scale mathematical and computational models for the study of infectious disease dynamics which now span over a century is build on a body of knowledge that has been developed to address particular single ...

Pathogen.jl: Infectious Disease Transmission Network Modeling with Julia
Journal of Statistical Software, 2022 We introduce Pathogen.jl for simulation and inference of transmission network individual level models (TN-ILMs) of infectious disease spread in continuous time. TN-ILMs can be used to jointly infer transmission networks, event times, and model parameters

Modelling infectious diseases with herd immunity in a randomly mixed population
Scientific Reports, 2021 The conventional susceptible-infectious-recovered (SIR) model tends to magnify the transmission dynamics of infectious diseases, and thus the estimated total infections and immunized population may be higher than the threshold required for infection ...

Revealing mechanisms of infectious disease spread through empirical contact networks.
PLoS Computational Biology, 2021 The spread of pathogens fundamentally depends on the underlying contacts between individuals. Modeling the dynamics of infectious disease spread through contact networks, however, can be challenging due to limited knowledge of how an infectious disease ...
