A stochastic household model for vector-borne diseases
Andrew Black, Andrew Smith, Alun Lloyd +1
We introduce a stochastic household model for vector-borne diseases, in particular as relevant to prominent vectors belonging to the Aedes genus and hence the Zika, chikungunya, an…
Inference of population-level disease transmissibility from household-structured symptom onset data
P. G. Ballard, A. J. Black, J. V. Ross
First Few X (FFX) studies collect household-stratified data in the early stages of a pandemic, in order to infer severity and transmissibility of an emerging disease. We present a…
Inference of epidemiological parameters from household stratified data
James N. Walker, Joshua V. Ross, Andrew J. Black
We consider a continuous-time Markov chain model of SIR disease dynamics with two levels of mixing. For this so-called stochastic households model, we provide two methods for infer…
