For a wide range of epidemic infections, contact structures can be used to describe the potential transmission of infection in a population [ 1- 4].
Our predictions indicate that, for the same assortativity values, there exists a range of values of the epidemic transmission potential that is compatible with epidemic containment in Mexico, whereas Europe may experience spatial propagation of the disease (see Figure 6B for R0 = 1.05).
It would be more convincing to fit this model, or similar models, to different generalized HIV epidemics with a range of baseline incidences and HIV epidemics in different stages of retreat.
Figures 1, 2, and 3 show results for combinatory intervention matrices over the range of epidemic infectivity (IF) for the outcomes of infection rates, adult days at home, and antiviral courses used, respectively.
CYS yield marked disease control only for the lower range of epidemic intensities.
However, VSS did not decrease the range of epidemic intensities in situations in which the adoption of CSS was impossible (not illustrated).
When two mutations are required, high levels of disease control (i.e. relative damage < 10%) were achieved for the entire range of epidemic intensities explored.
The range of epidemic intensities for which high levels of disease control (i.e., relative damage < 10%) were obtained with CYS was much larger and included all production situations in which epidemic intensity was below 0.5 before the deployment of the R cultivar (Fig. 2B), and even below 0.6 for resistance genes typically requiring two mutations to be broken down (Fig. 2C).
Spring Grove Cemetery and Arboretum, opened in Cincinnati in 1845 after a cholera epidemic, offers a range of events to lure the public.
