(CN) — Leading experts in virology and pathogen transmission say public health departments should craft robust regulations for building ventilation, a move that could protect millions from deadly ...

Heterogeneity is ubiquitous in real-world host populations, yet most theories assume homogeneity. Using a metapopulation model, we examine how host heterogeneities, such as uneven movement patterns ...

These results suggest that efficiency of pathogen transmission depends on where deposition occurs and the timing and place of acquisition, which varies among plant species and environmental conditions ...
