  • Distribution and transmission of M. tuberculosis in a high-HIV prevalence city in Malawi

    Open AccessMelanie H Chitwood, Elizabeth L Corbett et al.ARTICLEPLOS Global Public Health2025

    Delays in identifying and treating individuals with infectious tuberculosis (TB) contribute to poor health outcomes and allow ongoing community transmission of M. tuberculosis ( Mtb ). Current recommendations for screening for tuberculosis specify community characteristics (e.g., areas with high local tuberculosis prevalence) that can be used to target screening within the general population. However, areas of higher tuberculosis burden are not n…

  • The role of vaccine status homophily in the Covid-19 pandemic

    Open AccessElisha B Are, Kiffer G Card et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2024

    The uneven uptake of COVID-19 vaccines and the nature of the contact network in the population play important roles in shaping COVID-19 transmission dynamics

  • Spike Mutation Profiles Associated With Sars-CoV-2 Breakthrough Infections in Delta Emerging and Predominant Time Periods in British Columbia, Canada

    Open AccessChad D Fibke, Yayuk Joffres et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Public Health2022

    Background: COVID-19 vaccination is a key public health measure in the pandemic response. The rapid evolution of SARS-CoV-2 variants introduce new groups of spike protein mutations. These new mutations are thought to aid in the evasion of vaccine-induced immunity and render vaccines less effective. However, not all spike mutations contribute equally to vaccine escape. Previous studies associate mutations with vaccine breakthrough infections (BTI)…

  • The impact of sampling bias on viral phylogeographic reconstruction

    Open AccessPengyu Liu, Yexuan Song et al.ARTICLEPLOS Global Public Health2022

    Genomic epidemiology plays an ever-increasing role in our understanding of and response to the spread of infectious pathogens. Phylogeography, the reconstruction of the historical location and movement of pathogens from the evolutionary relationships among sampled pathogen sequences, can inform policy decisions related to viral movement among jurisdictions. However, phylogeographic reconstruction is impacted by the fact that the sampling and viru…

  • Vaccine rollout strategies

    Open AccessNicola Mulberry, Paul Tupper et al.ARTICLEPLOS Global Public Health2021

    In vaccination campaigns against COVID-19, many jurisdictions are using age-based rollout strategies, reflecting the much higher risk of severe outcomes of infection in older groups. In the wake of growing evidence that approved vaccines are effective at preventing not only adverse outcomes, but also infection, we show that such strategies are less effective than strategies that prioritize essential workers. This conclusion holds across numerous …
