Brazilian Spotted Fever (BSF), caused by the bacterium Rickettsia rickettsii, is the vector-borne disease that generates more human deaths in the state of São Paulo. In this region, the endemic areas of BSF are associated with the presence and expansion of capybaras Hydrochoerus hydrochaeris, amplifier hosts of R. rickettsii and primary hosts of the tick Amblyomma cajennense, vector of th…
Brazilian spotted fever, caused by the bacteria Rickettsia rickettsii is the deadliest spotted fever of the world. R. rickettsii infection has a complex transmission cycle, involving different subpopulations of amplifier hosts and vectors. Modeling these types of complex pathogens represents a challenge in terms of the modeling structure and the extrapolation of insights in policy-related…
