Modelling of optimal vaccination strategies in response to a bioterrorism associated smallpox outbreak

Human Vaccines & Immunotherapeutics, 2021
The reemergence of smallpox as a bioterrorism attack is now an increasing and legitimate concern. Advances in synthetic biology have now made it possible for the virus to be synthesized in a laboratory, with methods publicly available.

Influence of Population Immunosuppression and Past Vaccination on Smallpox Reemergence

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2018
We built a SEIR (susceptible, exposed, infected, recovered) model of smallpox transmission for New York, New York, USA, and Sydney, New South Wales, Australia, that accounted for age-specific population immunosuppression and residual vaccine immunity and

Monkeypox virus-infected individuals mount comparable humoral immune responses as Smallpox-vaccinated individuals

Nature Communications, 2023
In early 2022, a cluster of monkeypox virus (MPXV) infection (mpox) cases were identified within the UK with no prior travel history to MPXV-endemic regions.
