Epidemiological delays are key quantities that inform public health policy and clinical practice. They are used as inputs for mathematical and statistical models, which in turn can guide control strat...

An epidemic’s expected course is determined by the magnitude and timing of a typical person’s infectiousness — captured, in turn, by the basic reproduction number and the generation-time distribution....

Author summary Understanding how viruses reproduce within an infected host is crucial for predicting disease progression and evaluating treatments. One way to study this is by using mathematical model...

This study conducted a 20-year analysis in Stockholm showing that RSV epidemic patterns shifted due to viral interference from influenza, particularly, pandemic H1N1, highlighting the complex interactions between co-circulating respiratory viruses.

The release of Aedes aegypti mosquitoes transinfected with the virus-inhibiting Wolbachia bacterium has the potential to reduce the burden caused by dengue virus (DENV). However, the robustness of thi...

Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infections are a significant public health concern for pediatric populations and older adults, with seasonal winter outbreaks in the United States (US).
