Self-Interest versus Group-Interest in Antiviral Control

Van Boven, Michiel, Klinkenberg, Don, Pen, Ido, Weissing, Franz J., Heesterbeek, Hans

Antiviral agents have been hailed to hold considerable promise for the treatment and prevention of emerging viral diseases like H5N1 avian influenza and SARS. However, antiviral drugs are not...

Effects of heterogeneity in infection-exposure history and immunity on the dynamics of a protozoan parasite

Severins, Maite, Klinkenberg, Don, Heesterbeek, Hans

Infection systems where traits of the host, such as acquired immunity, interact with the infection process can show complex dynamic behaviour with counter-intuitive results. In this study, we...

Estimation of Transmission Parameters of H5N1 Avian Influenza Virus in Chickens

Bouma, Annemarie, Claassen, Ivo, Natih, Ketut, Klinkenberg, Don, Donnelly, Christl A., Koch, Guus, ...

Despite considerable research efforts, little is yet known about key epidemiological parameters of H5N1 highly pathogenic influenza viruses in their avian hosts. Here we show how these parameters can...

Quantifying Transmission of Campylobacter jejuni in Commercial Broiler Flocks▿ †

Van Gerwe, Twan, Miflin, Jeanette K., Templeton, Jillian M., Bouma, Annemarie, Wagenaar, Jaap A., Jacobs-Reitsma, Wilma F., ...

Since meat from poultry colonized with Campylobacter spp. is a major cause of bacterial gastroenteritis, human exposure should be reduced by, among other things, prevention of colonization of broiler...
