Rodrigues2014-Vaccination models and optimal control strategies to dengue
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: As the development of a dengue vaccine is ongoing, we simulate an hypothetical vaccine as an extra protection to the population. In a first phase, the vaccination process is studied as a new compartment in the model, and different ways of distributing the vaccines investigated: pediatric and random mass vaccines, with distinct levels of efficacy and durability. In a second step, the vaccination is seen as a control variable in the epidemiological process. In both cases, epidemic and endemic scenarios are included in order to analyze distinct outbreak realitiesModel is encoded by Ruby and submitted to BioModels by Ahmad Zyoud.
