Population-Level Disease Dynamics Reflect Individual Heterogeneities in Transmission

2019-08-15

Abstract excerpt

Host heterogeneity in disease transmission is widespread and presents a major hurdle to predicting and minimizing pathogen spread. Using the Drosophila melanogaster model system infected with Drosophila C virus, we integrate experimental measurements of individual host heterogeneity in social aggregation, virus shedding, and disease-induced mortality into an epidemiological framework that simulates outbreaks of...
