Epidemic thresholds in dynamic contact networksErik Volz
Integrative Biology, University of Texas at Austin, Austin, TX 78712, USA
J R Soc Interface 6:233-41. 2009..We show that social mixing fundamentally changes the epidemiological landscape and, consequently, that static network approximations of dynamic networks can be inadequate...
SIR dynamics in random networks with heterogeneous connectivityErik Volz
Department of Integrative Biology, University of Texas, Austin, TX, USA
J Math Biol 56:293-310. 2008..Finally, the dynamic equations provide an alternative way of determining the epidemic threshold where large-scale epidemics are expected to occur, and below which epidemic behavior is limited to finite-sized outbreaks...
Susceptible-infected-recovered epidemics in dynamic contact networksErik Volz
Department of Integrative Biology, University of Texas at Austin, 1 University Station, C0930, Austin, TX 78712, USA
Proc Biol Sci 274:2925-33. 2007..Using epidemiological and sexual contact data from an Atlanta high school, we demonstrate the application of this method for forecasting and controlling sexually transmitted disease outbreaks...
