Contributions to the mathematical theory of epidemics—I

(1) A mathematical investigation has been made of the progress of an epidemic in a homogeneous population. It has been assumed that complete immunity is conferred by a single attack, and that an individual is not infective at the moment at which he receives infection. With these reservations the problem has been investigated in its most general aspects, and the following conclusions have been arrived at. (2) In general a threshold density of population is found to exist, which depends upon the infectivity, recovery and death rates peculiar to the epidemic. No epidemic can occur if the population density is below this threshold value. (3) Small increases of the infectivity rate may lead to large epidemics; also, if the population density slightly exceeds its threshold value the effect of an epidemic will be to reduce the density as far below the threshold value as initially it was above it. (4) An epidemic, in general, comes to an end, before the susceptible population has been exhausted. (5) Similar results are indicated for the case in which transmission is through an intermediate host.     

Reproduction numbers and thresholds in stochastic epidemic models. I. Homogeneous populations.

We compare threshold results for the deterministic and stochastic versions of the homogeneous SI model with recruitment, death due to the disease, a background death rate, and transmission rate beta cXY/N. If an infective is introduced into a population of susceptibles, the basic reproduction number, R0, plays a fundamental role for both, though the threshold results differ somewhat. For the deterministic model, no epidemic can occur if R0 less than or equal to 1 and an epidemic occurs if R0 greater than 1. For the stochastic model we find that on average, no epidemic will occur if R0 less than or equal to 1. If R0 greater than 1, there is a finite probability, but less than 1, that an epidemic will develop and eventuate in an endemic quasi-equilibrium. However, there is also a finite probability of extinction of the infection, and the probability of extinction decreases as R0 increases above 1.     

The effects of disease dispersal and host clustering on the epidemic threshold in plants

For an epidemic to occur in a closed population, the transmission rate must be above a threshold level. In plant populations, the threshold depends not only on host density, but on the distribution of hosts in space. This paper presents an alternative analysis of a previously presented stochastic model for an epidemic in continuous space (Bolker, 1999, Bull. Math. Biol. 61, 849–874). A variety of moment closures are investigated to determine the dependence of the epidemic threshold on host spatial distribution and pathogen dispersal. Local correlations that arise during the early phase of the outbreak determine whether a true global epidemic will occur.     

The Kermack-McKendrick epidemic model revisited

The Kermack-McKendrick epidemic model of 1927 is an age of infection model, that is, a model in which the infectivity of an individual depends on the time since the individual became infective. A special case, which is formulated as a two-dimensional system of ordinary differential ordinary differential equations, has often been called the Kermack-McKendrick model. One of the products of the SARS epidemic of 2002-2003 was a variety of epidemic models including general contact rates, quarantine, and isolation. These models can be viewed as age of infection epidemic models and analyzed using the approach of the full Kermack-McKendrick model. All these models share the basic properties that there is a threshold between disappearance of the disease and an epidemic outbreak, and that an epidemic will die out without infecting the entire population.     

Endemic disease in environments with spatially heterogeneous host populations

The main interest in epidemic models stems from their use in uncovering certain qualitative features of epidemic processes. A deterministic model of a general epidemic in a population with an arbitrary number of separate population centers is presented. The mixing within each center is assumed to be homogeneous, and the usual threshold theorem holds for each population. The mixing between centers is nonhomogeneous. This model is used to identify the necessary and sufficient conditions under which a disease will become endemic in the general population when each population center is below the threshold required for establishment of the disease and does not mix with other centers. These conditions depend critically on the concavity of the infection rate function with respect to the length of exposure time. The application of these results to host-vector models is discussed.     

Interval estimates for epidemic thresholds in two-sex network models

Epidemic thresholds in network models of heterogeneous populations characterized by highly right-skewed contact distributions can be very small. When the population is above the threshold, an epidemic is inevitable and conventional control measures to reduce the transmissibility of a pathogen will fail to eradicate it. We consider a two-sex network model for a sexually transmitted disease which assumes random mixing conditional on the degree distribution. We derive expressions for the basic reproductive number (R(0)) for one and heterogeneous two-population in terms of characteristics of the degree distributions and transmissibility. We calculate interval estimates for the epidemic thresholds for stochastic process models in three human populations based on representative surveys of sexual behavior (Uganda, Sweden, USA). For Uganda and Sweden, the epidemic threshold is greater than zero with high confidence. For the USA, the interval includes zero. We discuss the implications of these findings along with the limitations of epidemic models which assume random mixing.     

An impulsive delayed SEIRS epidemic model with saturation incidence

A delayed SEIRS epidemic model with pulse vaccination and saturation incidence rate is investigated. Using Krasnoselskii's fixed-point theorem, we obtain the existence of infection-free periodic solution of the impulsive delayed epidemic system. We define some new threshold values R(1), R(2) and R(3). Further, using the comparison theorem, we obtain the explicit formulae of R(1) and R(2). Under the condition R(1) < 1, the infection-free periodic solution is globally attractive, and that R(2) > 1 implies that the disease is permanent. Theoretical results show that the disease will be extinct if the vaccination rate is larger than θ* and the disease is uniformly persistent if the vaccination rate is less than θ(*). Our results indicate that a long latent period of the disease or a large pulse vaccination rate will lead to eradication of the disease. Moreover, we prove that the disease will be permanent as R(3) > 1.     

Assessing the effects of drug misuse on HIV/AIDS prevalence

Drug misuse (injecting drug users-IDU) has been recognized to have a significant effect on the spread of HIV/AIDS epidemic. A deterministic model to assess the contribution of drug misuse and sex in the spread of HIV/AIDS is investigated. The threshold parameters of the model are determined and stabilities are analysed. Analysis of the reproduction number has shown that increase in drug misuse results in an increase in HIV infections. Furthermore, numerical simulations of the model show that drug misuse enhances HIV transmission and progression to AIDS. Thus, in a population with intravenous drug users, advocating for safe sex alone will not be enough to control the HIV/AIDS epidemic.
