Vaccine-Preventable Disease

Projections of outbreak behavior into some future time, determined relative to a defined starting point. Might include retrospective projects or projections for current activitiy (known as "now-casting").

compartmental models

Compartmental Models

A respiratory tract infection caused by a virus. Viruses represent the most common causes of upper and lower respiratory tract infections and include rhinoviruses, influenza viruses, parainfluenza viruses, and respiratory syncytial virus.

viral respiratory tract infection

Viral Respiratory Tract Infection

Minute infectious agents whose genomes are composed of DNA or RNA, but not both. They are characterized by a lack of independent metabolism and the inability to replicate outside living host cells.

Viruses

An organism of a particular biological taxon that is the bearer of an infectious dispositions towards an organism of a different particular biological taxon.
