First, we use data and models of West African migration to show that EVD does not homogeneously mix, but spreads in a predictable manner. Next, we estimate the initial growth rate of EVD within country administ
The relapse intervals of this Western African strain ranged from 58 days to 232 days. This is quite different from the relapsing patterns of P. vivax strains from the tropical Pacific region such as the Chesson strain, which relapse quickly but typically do not extend beyond one year [30]....
In addition, in this case (the West African ICEMR), the essentially identical malaria control policies in The Gambia, Senegal and Mali (Table 1) potentially provide an opportunity to evaluate the impacts of differences in malaria endemicity (intensity of transmission) and implementation on the ou...
