Phylodynamics of infectious disease epidemics.
We present a formalism for unifying the inference of population size from genetic sequences and mathematical models of infectious disease in populations. Virus phylogenies have been used in many recent studies to infer properties of epidemics. These approaches rely on coalescent models that may not be appropriate for infectious diseases. We account for phylogenetic patterns of viruses in suscep...
متن کاملRussia's drug policy fuels infectious disease epidemics.
On Feb 3, 2012, the Russian Government blocked the website of the Andrey Rylkov Foundation for Health and Social Justice. The reason, according to the Federal Drugs Control Service, was the website’s “placement of materials that propagandize (advertise) the use of drugs, information about distribution, purchasing of drugs and inciting the use of drugs”. The drug in question was methadone, which...
متن کاملEpidemics on random intersection graphs
In this paper we consider a model for the spread of a stochastic SIR (Susceptible → Infectious → Recovered) epidemic on a network of individuals described by a random intersection graph. Individuals belong to a random number of cliques, each of random size, and infection can be transmitted between two individuals if and only if there is a clique they both belong to. Both the clique sizes and th...
متن کاملPredicting and controlling infectious disease epidemics using temporal networks
Infectious diseases can be considered to spread over social networks of people or animals. Mainly owing to the development of data recording and analysis techniques, an increasing amount of social contact data with time stamps has been collected in the last decade. Such temporal data capture the dynamics of social networks on a timescale relevant to epidemic spreading and can potentially lead t...
