Eradicating infectious disease using weakly transmissible vaccines [PDF]

Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2016
Viral vaccines have had remarkable positive impacts on human health as well as the health of domestic animal populations. Despite impressive vaccine successes, however, many infectious diseases cannot yet be efficiently controlled or eradicated through vaccination, often because it is impossible to vaccinate a sufficient proportion of the population ...
