DOI: 10.1002/jmv.28270
Abstract: This world outbreak of Monkeypox (MPX) infections outside Africa emerged on May 2022 in Europe and spread worldwide with unique characteristics: inter‐human contagion and infection in men without specific previous immunization, prevalently men‐who‐have‐sex‐with‐men (MSM). Phylogenetic… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/mma.7586
Abstract: The basic reproduction number (R0) often cannot be explicitly computed when dealing with continuously age‐structured epidemic models. In this paper, we numerically compute R0 of a PDE model for a human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/sim.7935
Abstract: The standard mass action, which assumes that infectious disease transmission occurs in well-mixed populations, is popular for formulating compartmental epidemic models. Compartmental epidemic models often follow standard mass action for simplicity and to gain insight… read more here.

DOI: 10.1017/s0950268821000431
Abstract: Abstract Previous studies have reported the basic reproduction number (R0) of coronavirus disease from publicly reported data that lack information such as onset of symptoms, presence of importations or known super-spreading events. Using data from… read more here.
