Predicting suitability of regions for Zika outbreaks with zero-inflated models trained using climate data

2019-09-16

Abstract excerpt

In recent years, Zika spread through the Americas. This virus has been linked to Guillain-Barré syndrome, which can lead to paralysis, and microcephaly, a severe birth defect. Zika is primarily transmitted by Aedes (Ae.) aegypti , a mosquito whose geographic range has expanded and is anticipated to continue shifting as the climate changes.
