Modeling Influenza Transmission Using Environmental Parameters
Influenza is an acute viral respiratory disease that has significant mortality, morbidity and economic burden worldwide. It infects approximately 5-15% of the world population, and causes 250,000 – 500,000 deaths each year. The role of environments on influenza is often drawn upon the latitude variability of influenza seasonality pattern. In regions with temperate climate, influenza epidemics e...
متن کاملTransmission Dynamics of Seasonal Influenza in Abidjan: Epidemiology and Modeling
Introduction Influenza poses a global health threat. The disease affects all ages, often with variable clinical features. Abidjan, where this study took place, has a long rainy season AprilJuly with a shorter less intense rainy season October-November. Temperatures vary very little during the year. In temperate areas, children and adults aged 65 years are risk groups. In these countries the sea...
متن کاملThe ecology and adaptive evolution of influenza A interspecies transmission
Since 2013, there have been several alarming influenza-related events; the spread of highly pathogenic avian influenza H5 viruses into North America, the detection of H10N8 and H5N6 zoonotic infections, the ongoing H7N9 infections in China and the continued zoonosis of H5N1 viruses in parts of Asia and the Middle East. The risk of a new influenza pandemic increases with the repeated interspecie...
متن کاملModeling Adaptive Behavior with Conceptual Spaces
We discuss a membrane-based calculus for the combination of conceptual spaces during runtime. Since our goal is to support emergent properties of behavior (and due to the fact that it is not possible to define a complete calculus for all situations) we introduce the notion of self-modification. Terms from situational description can evolve according to simple rules thus providing various possib...
متن کاملModeling the global transmission of antiviral‐resistant influenza viruses
BACKGROUND The mutations that confer resistance to antiviral agents are thought to be detrimental, or at best neutral, to influenza virus fitness. The fact that resistant influenza strains can circulate and sometimes replace sensitive strains is of great public health concern. OBJECTIVES We used mathematical modeling to test various hypotheses about the transmission of antiviral-resistant inf...
