Nonlinear impacts of climate change on dengue transmission Dengue is a re-emerging mosquito-borne disease that infects hundreds of millions each year—a burden that is expected to increase with climate change. However, the precise relationship between dengue transmission and changing temperature is nuanced: previous research has shown that warmer temperatures can increase, decrease, or not affect

Vector-borne diseases spread and control: The case of Chikungunya in French overseas territories and consequences for dissemination in mainland territory Dengue, chikungunya and Zika viruses have expanded their geographic range during recent decades and are now considered emerging threats in temperate areas. In particular autochthonous transmissions of chikungunya virus (CHIKV) have regularly been observed in

Transmission intervals and COVID control The spread of epidemics is structured by delay distributions, including the now-famous "serial interval" between the symptom-onset times of an infector and an infectee (often conflated with the "generation interval" between infection times). Defining these time distributions clearly, and describing how they relate to each other, and to key parameters
