One difficulty for real‐time tracking of epidemics is related to reporting delay. The delay may be due laboratory confirmation, logistical problems, infrastructure difficulties, and so on. ability correct the available information as quickly possible crucial, in terms decision making such issuing warnings public local authorities. A Bayesian hierarchical modelling approach proposed a flexible way correcting delays quantify associated uncertainty. Implementation model fast use integrated...
Mathematical modelling and statistical inference provide a framework to evaluate different non-pharmaceutical pharmaceutical interventions for the control of epidemics that has been widely used during COVID-19 pandemic. In this paper, lessons learned from previous are highlight challenges future pandemic control. We consider availability use data, as well need correct parameterisation calibration model frameworks. discuss arise in describing distinguishing between interventions, within...
Brazil started the COVID-19 mass vaccination in January 2021 with CoronaVac and ChAdOx1, followed by BNT162b2 Ad26.COV2.S vaccines. By end of 2021, more than 317 million vaccine doses were administered adult population. This study aimed at estimating effectiveness primary series booster shots protecting against severe cases deaths during first year vaccination.A cohort dataset over 158 records linked from official national registries was analyzed via a mixed-effects Poisson model, adjusted...
Server providers that support e-commerce applications as a service for multiple Web sites traditionally use tiered server architecture. This architecture includes an application tier to process requests dynamically generated content. How this is provisioned can significantly impact provider's profit margin. In article we study methods provision servers in the serving increase profits. First, examine actual traces of request arrivals site, and show arrival effectively Poisson. Next, construct...
SUMMARY Zika virus infection was declared a public health emergency of international concern in February 2016 response to the outbreak Brazil and its suspected link with congenital anomalies. In this study, we use notification data disease natural history parameters estimate basic reproduction number ( R 0 ) Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. We also obtain estimates dengue from time series cases outbreaks registered 2002 2012 city, when DENV-3 DENV-4 serotypes, respectively, had just emerged. Our for...
Mosquitoes that carry Wolbachia endosymbionts may help control the spread of arboviral diseases, such as dengue, Zika and chikungunya. frequencies systematically increase only when frequency-dependent advantage due to cytoplasmic incompatibility exceeds frequency-independent costs, which be intrinsic and/or can associated with genetic background into are introduced. Costs depend on field conditions environmental pesticide load. Introduced mosquitoes need adequate protection against...
A nationwide Severe Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) vaccination campaign was initiated in Brazil January 2021 with CoronaVac (Sinovac Biotech) and ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 (AstraZeneca) followed by BNT162b2 mRNA (Pfizer–BioNTech) Ad26.COV2.S (Johnson & Johnson–Janssen) vaccines. Here we provide estimates of the number severe cases deaths due to coronavirus disease (COVID-19) averted during first year mass Brazil. Data on COVID-19 COVID-19-related illness death were obtained from...
The estimation of parameters and model structure for informing infectious disease response has become a focal point the recent pandemic. However, it also highlighted plethora challenges remaining in fast robust extraction information using data models to help inform policy. In this paper, we identify discuss four broad paradigm relating modelling, namely Uncertainty Quantification framework, estimation, model-based inference prediction, expert judgement. We postulate priorities methodology...
Abstract Background As malaria endemic countries strive towards elimination, intensified spatial heterogeneities of local transmission could undermine the effectiveness traditional intervention policy. Methods The dynamic nature large-scale and long-term heterogeneity across Brazilian Amazon basin were explored by (1) exploratory analysis Brazil’s rich clinical reporting database from 2004 to 2018, (2) adapting Gini coefficient study distribution cases in region. Results declined, increased...
Background Despite recent intensification of control measures, Plasmodium vivax poses a major challenge for malaria elimination efforts. Liver-stage hypnozoite parasites that cause relapsing infections can be cleared with primaquine; however, poor treatment adherence undermines drug effectiveness. Tafenoquine, new single-dose treatment, offers an alternative option preventing relapses and reducing transmission. In 2018, over 237,000 cases were reported to the Brazilian health system, which...
Household transmission studies seek to understand the dynamics of a pathogen by estimating risk infection from household contacts and community exposures. We estimated within/extra-household SARS-CoV-2 associated factors in cohort study one most vulnerable neighbourhoods Rio de Janeiro city.
Malaria transmission modelling has demonstrated the potential impact of semiquantitative glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) testing and treatment with single-dose tafenoquine for Plasmodium vivax radical cure but not investigated associated costs. This study evaluated cost-effectiveness P. after G6PD using a model.
This study introduces a model for developing dengue vaccine program children aged 10-14 in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. We simulate spread and vaccination impacts over three years, focusing on efficacies, timing, stochastic rates within SIRS-V framework. Our findings highlight the importance of efficacy timing reducing infections managing outbreaks. Even with lower efficacy, early significantly reduces infection peaks delays epidemic onset. While there are discrepancies actual data, suggesting...
