Possible counter-intuitive impact of local vaccine mandates for vaccine-preventable infectious diseases [PDF]
We model the impact of local vaccine mandates on the spread of vaccine-preventable infectious diseases, which in the absence of vaccines will mainly affect children. Examples of such diseases are measles, rubella, mumps and pertussis. To model the spread of the pathogen, we use a stochastic SIR (Susceptible, Infectious, Recovered) model with two levels

Diagnostic Uncertainty Limits the Potential of Early Warning Signals to Identify Epidemic Emergence [PDF]
Methods to detect the emergence of infectious diseases, and approach to the "critical transition" RE = 1, have to potential to avert substantial disease burden by facilitating preemptive actions like vaccination campaigns. Early warning signals (EWS), summary statistics of infection case time series, show promise in providing such advanced warnings. As

An Evaluation of Mumps Antibody Titers Among Pharmacy Students Before and After a University Mumps Outbreak [PDF]
Mumps outbreaks continue to transpire across the United States despite the available MMR (Measles-Mumps-Rubella) vaccine and seemingly high vaccination rates. There is limited evidence surrounding the management, impact, and prevention of mumps outbreaks.
