متن کاملGlobal spatial patterns of infectious diseases and human evolution
19 more potential vectors and led to greater exposure to zoonotic diseases (Polgar 1964). Over this long period, aspects of human behavior, physiology, and genetics evolved in response to these diseases (Armalegos and Dewey 1970; Dronamraju 2004). We consider in this chapter three main questions about the global distribution of infectious diseases and their impact, in particular the impact of t...
متن کاملModeling the spatial spread of infectious diseases: The GLobal Epidemic and Mobility computational model
Here we present the Global Epidemic and Mobility (GLEaM) model that integrates sociodemographic and population mobility data in a spatially structured stochastic disease approach to simulate the spread of epidemics at the worldwide scale. We discuss the flexible structure of the model that is open to the inclusion of different disease structures and local intervention policies. This makes GLEaM...
متن کاملMixing patterns and the spread of close-contact infectious diseases
Surprisingly little is known regarding the human mixing patterns relevant to the spread of close-contact infections, such as measles, influenza and meningococcal disease. This study aims to estimate the number of partnerships that individuals make, their stability and the degree to which mixing is assortative with respect to age. We defined four levels of putative at-risk events from casual (ph...
متن کاملMultiscale mobility networks and the spatial spreading of infectious diseases.
Among the realistic ingredients to be considered in the computational modeling of infectious diseases, human mobility represents a crucial challenge both on the theoretical side and in view of the limited availability of empirical data. To study the interplay between short-scale commuting flows and long-range airline traffic in shaping the spatiotemporal pattern of a global epidemic we (i) anal...
