Notably, networks of care homes create an ecosystem where staff and visitor movement acts as a vector for disease transmission, contributing to the heightened risk for their vulnerable communities. Care homes in the UK were disproportionately affected by the first wave of the COVID-19 pandemic, accounting for almost half of COVID-19 deaths during the period of 6th March – 15th June 2020 and so there is a pressing need to explore modelling approaches suitable for such systems. We develop a generic compartmental Susceptible - Exposed - Infectious - Recovered - Dead (<strong>SEIRD</strong>) metapopulation model, with care home residents, care home workers, and the general population modelled as subpopulations, interacting on a network describing their mixing habits. We illustrate the model application by analysing the spread of COVID-19 over the first wave of the COVID-19 pandemic in the NHS Lothian health board, Scotland. We explicitly model the outbreak’s reproduction rate and care home visitation level over time for each subpopulation and execute a data fit and sensitivity analysis, focusing on parameters responsible for inter-subpopulation mixing: staff-sharing, staff shift patterns and visitation. The results from our sensitivity analysis show that restricting staff sharing between homes and staff interaction with the general public would significantly mitigate the disease burden. Our findings indicate that protecting care home staff from disease, coupled with reductions in staff-sharing across care homes and expedient cancellations of visitations, can significantly reduce the size of outbreaks in care home settings.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":49206,"journal":{"name":"Epidemics","volume":"48 ","pages":"Article 100781"},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1755436524000422/pdfft?md5=8ce8872d61aa25c3648559eaa80cd993&pid=1-s2.0-S1755436524000422-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141583076","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The timing of ART initiation is likely to affect the size of the latent viral reservoir established, as well as the development of adaptive immune responses, such as the generation of neutralizing antibody responses against the virus. How these parameters impact the ability of infants to control viremia and the time to viral rebound after ART interruption is unclear and has never been modeled in infants. To investigate this question we used an infant nonhuman primate Simian/Human Immunodeficiency Virus (SHIV) infection model. Infant Rhesus macaques (RMs) were orally challenged with SHIV.C.CH505 375H dCT and either given ART at 4-7 days post-infection (early ART condition), at 2 weeks post-infection (intermediate ART condition), or at 8 weeks post-infection (late ART condition). These infants were then monitored for up to 60 months post-infection with serial viral load and immune measurements. To gain insight into early after analytic treatment interruption (ATI), we constructed mathematical models to investigate the effect of time of ART initiation in delaying viral rebound when treatment is interrupted, focusing on the relative contributions of latent reservoir size and autologous virus neutralizing antibody responses. We developed a stochastic mathematical model to investigate the joint effect of latent reservoir size, the autologous neutralizing antibody potency, and CD4+ T cell levels on the time to viral rebound for RMs rebounding up to 60 days post-ATI. We find that the latent reservoir size is an important determinant in explaining time to viral rebound in infant macaques by affecting the growth rate of the virus. The presence of neutralizing antibodies can also delay rebound, but we find this effect for high potency antibody responses only. Finally, we discuss the therapeutic implications of our findings.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":49206,"journal":{"name":"Epidemics","volume":"48 ","pages":"Article 100780"},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1755436524000410/pdfft?md5=8d613cadb218eb75cd648d89f8bd3941&pid=1-s2.0-S1755436524000410-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141535739","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
