Some Vector Borne Diseases with Structured Host Populations: Extinction and Spatial Spread
We derive from a structured population model a system of delay differential equations describing the interaction of five subpopulations, namely susceptible and infected adult and juvenile reservoirs and infected adult vectors, for a vector borne disease with particular reference to West Nile virus, and we also incorporate spatial movements by considering the analogue reactiondiffusion systems w...
متن کاملHost spatial heterogeneity and the spread of vector-borne infection.
We analyze how spatial heterogeneity in host density affects the advance of vector-borne disease. Infection requires vector infestation. The vector spreads only between hosts occupying the same neighborhood, and the number of hosts varies randomly among neighborhoods. Simulation of a spatially detailed model shows that increasing heterogeneity in host abundance reduces pathogen prevalence. Clum...
متن کاملSpread of Vector Borne Diseases in a Population with Spatial Structure
Mathematical modeling of the spread of infectious diseases is a well established field with high practical importance. Underlying most analytical approaches is the assumption of “perfect mixing,” that is the idea that the spatial structure of the population can be neglected. This assumption is crucial to the solvability of the models, but can be dropped when using computational models instead o...
متن کاملSpread of Vector-borne Diseases and Neglect of Leishmaniasis, Europe
The risk for reintroduction of some exotic vector-borne diseases in Europe has become a hot topic, while the reality of others is neglected at the public health policy level. Leishmaniasis is endemic in all southern countries of Europe, with approximately 700 autochthonous human cases reported each year (3,950 if Turkey is included). Asymptomatic cases have been estimated at 30-100/1 symptomati...
متن کاملClimate Changes and Vector-Borne Diseases With an Emphasis on Parasitic Diseases: A Narrative Review
Background and Objectives: The issue of climate change has currently become a critical concern for the global community as it affects the transmission and spread of a wide range of diseases. This study aims to examine the literature and scientific evidence concerning the impact of climate change on vector-borne diseases. Methods: In this review research, a comprehensive search and review of te...
