Intra-vector infection dynamics challenge how to model the extrinsic incubation period for major arboviruses: dengue, Zika, and chikungunya

Abstract excerpt

Arboviruses represent a significant threat to the health of humans, animals, and plants worldwide. Mechanistic modeling has proven useful for elucidating the transmission, anticipating the spread, and predicting the response of arboviruses to control measures. However, most models approximate the intra-vector infection dynamic (IVD), which occurs during the extrinsic incubation period (EIP), by a single stage...
