Evaluation of the epidemiological pattern of COVID-19 applying basic reproduction number: An educational review article
After the onset of the COVID-19 outbreak in Wuhan, China, and its spread to other countries, confrontation with it as an international emergency in all countries was seriously on the agenda of governments. Our country was not immune to this outbreak. Effective measures to combat this new virus would be certainly based on a proper understanding of the epidemiological pattern and its evaluation i...
متن کاملEstimating the basic reproduction number for single-strain dengue fever epidemics
BACKGROUND Dengue, an infectious tropical disease, has recently emerged as one of the most important mosquito-borne viral diseases in the world. We perform a retrospective analysis of the 2011 dengue fever epidemic in Pakistan in order to assess the transmissibility of the disease. We obtain estimates of the basic reproduction number R 0 from epidemic data using different methodologies applied ...
متن کاملFurther Notes on the Basic Reproduction Number
The basic reproduction number, R0 is a measure of the potential for disease spread in a population. Mathematically, R0 is a threshold for stability of a disease-free equilibrium and is related to the peak and final size of an epidemic. The purpose of these notes is to give a precise definition and algorithm for obtaining R0 for a general compartmental ordinary differential equation model of dis...
متن کاملBasic reproduction number for the transmission of Plasmodium vivax malaria.
The possibility of relapse is introduced into a mathematical model for the transmission of Plasmodium vivax malaria. In the model, the human population is divided into four classes: susceptible, infected, dormant and recovered. Loss of immunity by individuals in the recovered class moves these individuals back into the susceptible class. Two equilibrium states are found, a disease-free state an...
