A multiperiod compartmental model of the HIV pandemic in the United States
The AA. develop a biologically-oriented mathematical model, of intermediate complexity, for the AIDS pandemic in the United States that is not only quantitatively consistent with the changing dynamics of the disease, but also allows them to estimate
The AIDS pandemic is transforming family life for many children and prompting concerns about the potential breakdown of social reproduction. In light of this pandemic, ways have been subjected in which schools could further substitute
A pedagogic simulation with profiles of high-risk characteristics is used to illustrate the path and means by which AIDS is diffusing across sub-Saharan Africa, the region most severely affected by this pandemic. - (DWG)
An appropriate form of a multiregion disease model is fitted to the spread of the 1957 Asian influenza pandemic and then used to examine the distributions of warning times associated with varying the location of the source region. Disease parameters
the pandemic had different spatial and temporal characteristics. The spread of all three waves was underpinned by a clearly defined process of spatial contagion.
The interventions to address AIDS pandemic are frequently implemented through schools, and are often complex products of negotiation between a range of institutional actors. These institutions appear to operate at different hierarchical levels
The geographic extent and clinical course of influenza (bird flu strain), suggest the virus is an excellent candidate for a pandemic infection. The A. reviews phylogeographic properties, including mechanisms for its evolving virulence
went up. But only a fraction of the population could participate from this welfare. In International comparison, esp. to the east-Asian region, South Africa even lost ground. In the near future, the AIDS pandemic will have even a growing impact
Southern Africa is severely hit by the HIV and AIDS pandemic. Botswana leads the list of high prevalence countries. Since 2002, the government of Botswana provides free antiretroviral therapy for all eligible HIV and AIDS patients. The article
assumptions : (1) no silver bullet – not assumed of incremental advances in technology, (2) no World War III, (3) no hidden genies – e.g. no killer disease pandemic, a meteorite impact and other accidents with low probability of occurrence, (4) the global
