Wolfe In PLoS Medicine, volume 3, issue 11, doi:10.1371/journal.pmed.0030502: Figure 1 from this correspondence was transposed with Figure 1 from the related correspondence by Viboud and colleagues (“Air Travel and the Spread of Infl uenza: Important Caveats” doi:10.1371/journal.pmed.0030503). The legend published with Figure 1 (“Infl uence of United States Airline Volume on Infl uenza Spread and the Timing of Yearly Transmission over 30 Infl uenza Seasons”) is correct. However, the fi gure itself should have appeared as shown below.

Empirical Evidence for the Effect of Airline Travel on Inter-Regional Influenza Spread in the United States

BACKGROUND The influence of air travel on influenza spread has been the subject of numerous investigations using simulation, but very little empirical evidence has been provided. Understanding the role of airline travel in large-scale influenza spread is especially important given the mounting threat of an influenza pandemic. Several recent simulation studies have concluded that air travel rest...

Delaying the International Spread of Pandemic Influenza

BACKGROUND The recent emergence of hypervirulent subtypes of avian influenza has underlined the potentially devastating effects of pandemic influenza. Were such a virus to acquire the ability to spread efficiently between humans, control would almost certainly be hampered by limited vaccine supplies unless global spread could be substantially delayed. Moreover, the large increases that have occ...

ransmission and control of an emerging influenza pandemic in a small-world irline network

The avian influenza virus H5N1 and the 2009 swine flu H1N1 are potentially serious pandemic threats to human health, and air travel readily facilitates the spread of infectious diseases. However, past studies have not yet incorporated the effects of air travel on the transmission of influenza in the construction of mathematical epidemic models. Therefore, this paper focused on the human-to-huma...

Original Contribution Detecting Robust Patterns in the Spread of Epidemics: A Case Study of Influenza in the United States and France

In this paper, the authors develop a method of detecting correlations between epidemic patterns in different regions that are due to human movement and introduce a null model in which the travel-induced correlations are cancelled. They apply this method to the well-documented cases of seasonal influenza outbreaks in the United States and France. In the United States (using data for 1972–2002), ...
