This paper discusses the validity of the epidemiological transition model to interpret changes in the structure of mortality and morbidity. Epistemological and political questions are posed. The case of Mexico is used to illustrate the limitations its use imposes on understanding the constellation of com...
. The epidemiological transition model is useful for summarising many of the changes taking place in ea ch country, but we recognise that modelling such complex patterns and processes cannot fully interpret the specif ic contrasts at the micro-level ...
For example, individuals could be sampled as they transition from the exposed to the infected class, or while they are in the infected class. We chose to sample upon recovery based on symptom development (and thereby testing) often occurring following peak viral load. Implementation of the ...
The larger this second parameter is, the faster the transition from susceptible to infectious will be. As a consequence, the number of hospitalized patients may increase very quickly and may lead to a collapse of the health system [13]. Strong distancing measures such as confinement can ...
The functional dependence of the basic reproductive number R0 on the model’s defining parameters reveals the role of spatial fluctuations and leads to a novel expression for R0. Special attention is given to simulations of inter-regional transmission of the contagion. The scaling of the epidemic ...

An example output of this model, fitting the Swedish data, is briefly described here:https://twitter.com/houterkabouter/status/1256123165346062336 Age-structured model This model is implemented as 'R/models/model-age.R' This is the model that has been described in the paper linked above. It ...
(for example, new infections per day within a city) and system parameters (for example, transmission rate in each city) of the model can be iteratively calibrated and estimated by a fitting of the model to case observations using Bayesian inference13,42. Our results showed that the method ...
