Benefit of vaccination in protecting the departments of Grand’Anse, Ouest and Sud against a potential second epidemic wave of cholera

Andrea Rinaldo, Enrico Bertuzzo, Flavio Finger, Damiano Pasetto

In a previous report, we presented model projections based on data available up to epi-week 43 (ending Oct-29). These projections suggested that, due to anticipated heavy rainfalls at the end of November, a second peak of cholera might be observed in early ...

The temporal patterns of disease severity and prevalence in schistosomiasis

Andrea Rinaldo, Lorenzo Mari, Marino Gatto

Schistosomiasis is one of the most widespread public health problems in the world. In this work, we introduce an eco-epidemiological model for its transmission and dynamics with the purpose of explaining both intra-and inter-annual fluctuations of disease ...

Glucose- but Not Rice-Based Oral Rehydration Therapy Enhances the Production of Virulence Determinants in the Human Pathogen Vibrio cholerae

Andrea Rinaldo, Melanie Blokesch, Enrico Bertuzzo, Flavio Finger, Juliane Kühn, Marino Gatto

Despite major attempts to prevent cholera transmission, millions of people worldwide still must address this devastating disease. Cholera research has so far mainly focused on the causative agent, the bacterium Vibrio cholerae, or on disease treatment, but ...

Positive network assortativity of influenza vaccination at a high school: implications for outbreak risk and herd immunity

Marcel Salathé

Schools are known to play a significant role in the spread of influenza. High vaccination coverage can reduce infectious disease spread within schools and the wider community through vaccine-induced immunity in vaccinated individuals and through the indire ...

Understanding the contributions of aerosol properties and parameterization discrepancies to droplet number variability in a global climate model

Athanasios Nenes

Aerosol indirect effects in climate models strongly depend on the representation of the aerosol activation process. In this study, we assess the process-level differences across activation parameterizations that contribute to droplet number uncertainty by ...

Generalized reproduction numbers and the prediction of patterns in waterborne disease

Andrea Rinaldo, Enrico Bertuzzo, Lorenzo Mari, Lorenzo Righetto, Marino Gatto

Understanding, predicting, and controlling outbreaks of waterborne diseases are crucial goals of public health policies, but pose challenging problems because infection patterns are influenced by spatial structure and temporal asynchrony. Although explicit ...

Modelling human movement in cholera spreading along fluvial systems

Andrea Rinaldo, Enrico Bertuzzo, Lorenzo Righetto, Marino Gatto

We propose an important extension of a previously studied, spatially explicit and hydrology-driven, model of cholera spreading. Our reformulation concerns the role of different modelizations of human movement on the overall dynamics of the epidemics, which ...

On Spatially Explicit Models of Cholera Epidemics

Andrea Rinaldo, Enrico Bertuzzo, Marino Gatto

We generalize a recently proposed model for cholera epidemics that accounts for local communities of susceptibles and infectives in a spatially explicit arrangement of nodes linked by networks having different topologies. The vehicle of infection (Vibrio c ...

Stochastic dynamics of cholera epidemics

Andrea Rinaldo, Enrico Bertuzzo, Amos Maritan

We describe the predictions of an analytically tractable stochastic model for cholera epidemics following a single initial outbreak. The exact model relies on a set of assumptions that may restrict the generality of the approach and yet provides a realm of ...
