Within Host and Multiscale Models of Usutu and SARS-CoV-2 Viral Infections with Animal Hosts
… in viral strain dynamics, and correlated high basic reproductive number with short infected cell lifespan (indicative of immune responses) and correlated low basic reproductive number with low viral peaks and longer lasting viremia (due to lower infection rates and high infected cell lifespan). …

Mathematical Modeling of Malaria: Theories of Malaria Elimination
… the human component of malarial R0, the basic reproductive number. I then compare this value to those from three other models and describe how this quantity can be used to model malaria transmission. The second application of the model incorporates the effects of drug treatment on …

THE ECOLOGY OF TICK-BORNE RELAPSING FEVER IN WESTERN NORTH AMERICA
… model to calculate R<sub>0</sub>, the basic reproductive number of the disease system. The effect of antigenic variation of the spirochete was assessed by adding relapsing classes to the model, which resulted in an increase of R<sub>0</sub>. We confirmed the suitability of coniferous …

Hybrid methodology for Markovian epidemic models
… is particularly important when only a small number of infectious individuals are present, during which stage the probability of epidemic fade out is considerable. Unfortunately, the simple SIR CTMC has a state space of order N², where N is the size of the population being modelled, and hence …

Mathematical Modeling, Analysis and Control of Some Infectious Diseases
… Fick's law. For both models an estimate of the Basic Reproductive Number related to the spatial case is provided, comparing it later with the one corresponding to the non-spatial model. The conditions are given for which this quantity constitutes a threshold value for the eradication of the …
