Modeling hantavirus infections in mainland China

作者:

Highlights:

• Formulate a model to quantify the transmission dynamics of hantaviruses.

• Define the basic reproduction number which governs whether the disease dies out.

• The model is parameterized by fitting case data and estimates are obtained.

• Immune strategy and cleaning environment are essential control measures.
