Optimizing Lassa Fever Outbreak Control: A Comparative Study on the Efficacy of Contact Tracing Integration in Epidemiological Models

2024-10-21

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Lassa fever, an acute viral hemorrhagic illness endemic to West Africa, presents significant public health challenges because of its high mortality rate and potential for rapid spread. Accurate models are crucial for effective outbreak management and resource allocation. As such, this study examines the modelling of Lassa fever transmission through a comparative analysis of two epidemio...
