The global transmission and control of influenza: Supporting Text 1
نویسندگان
چکیده
Here, we describe a new global model of influenza pandemics. The model includes 321 major cities on six continents, the airline travel among them, and influenza seasonality data when available. This model includes more detailed within-host influenza dynamics, more detailed influenza vaccine behavior, and more detailed seasonality data for tropical regions than other models. Nonetheless, it is a relatively simple model that does not require specialized computing resources to use. The model has two layers: a set of within-city models and a global model that links them through the air transportation network and controls seasonality. Parameters are summarized in Table S1. We first describe the within-city model.

Among factors that might manipulate translators’ mind while producing a text is the notion of ideology transmission through text or talk. Adopting Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) with particular emphasis on the framework of Van Dijk (1999), the present investigation is an attempt to shed light on the relationship between language and ideology involved in translation in general, and more speci...

The spread of influenza viruses in multiple bird and mammalian species is a worldwide serious threat to human and animal populations' health and raise major concern for ongoing pandemic in humans. Direct transmission of the avian viruses which have sialic acid specific receptors similar to human influenza viruses are a warning to the emergence of a new mutant strain that is likely to share mole...

Introduction: One major problem in analyzing epidemic data is the lack of data and high dependency among the available data, which is due to the fact that the epidemic process is not directly observable. Methods: One method for epidemic data analysis to estimate the desired epidemic parameters, such as disease transmission rate and recovery rate, is data ...
