4 Infectious disease epidemiology Infectious diseases caused by pathogens (e.g. viruses, bacteria) infection from the environment or between-host transmissions examples: influenza, SARS, HIV, plague, malaria, dengue, nosocomial infections outbreak/epidemic: increased number of cases T. Jombart et al, Imperial College London Tools for outbreak analysis 3/34
5 Infectious disease epidemiology Infectious diseases caused by pathogens (e.g. viruses, bacteria) infection from the environment or between-host transmissions examples: influenza, SARS, HIV, plague, malaria, dengue, nosocomial infections outbreak/epidemic: increased number of cases Infectious Disease Epidemiology (IDE): some core objectives understand the infectious process uncover/predict the spatio-temporal dynamics of infectious diseases inform Public Health policies T.

12 Estimating time-varying reproduction numbers Reproduction number (R) central concept in IDE different flavours, but roughly: number of new infections created by each infected used for: final size prediction, useful vaccination effort, etc. assessing its variation in time is essential T.

13 Estimating time-varying reproduction numbers Reproduction number (R) central concept in IDE different flavours, but roughly: number of new infections created by each infected used for: final size prediction, useful vaccination effort, etc. assessing its variation in time is essential Problem: traditional reproduction numbers are only retrospective. T. Jombart et al, Imperial College London Tools for outbreak analysis 7/34
