State-level variation of initial COVID-19 dynamics in the United States
ER White, L Hébert-Dufresne - PloS one, 2020 - journals.plos.org
During an epidemic, metrics such as R 0, doubling time, and case fatality rates are important
in understanding and predicting the course of an epidemic. However, if collected over …

The effect of the definition of 'pandemic'on quantitative assessments of infectious disease outbreak risk
BJ Singer, RN Thompson, MB Bonsall - Scientific reports, 2021 - nature.com
In the early stages of an outbreak, the term 'pandemic'can be used to communicate about
infectious disease risk, particularly by those who wish to encourage a large-scale public …

Spreading processes in multiplex metapopulations containing different mobility networks
We propose a theoretical framework for the study of spreading processes in structured
metapopulations, with heterogeneous agents, subjected to different recurrent mobility …

Effect of individual behavior on epidemic spreading in activity-driven networks
In this work we study the effect of behavioral changes of individuals on the propagation of
epidemic diseases. Specifically, we consider a susceptible-infected-susceptible model over …

Epidemic spreading in modular time-varying networks
We investigate the effects of modular and temporal connectivity patterns on epidemic
spreading. To this end, we introduce and analytically characterise a model of time-varying …
