I have been learning and working these past few weeks with physics inspired neural networks (PINNs) applied to infectious disease modeling. I solved and did parameter inference for the Susceptible-Infected (SI) and the SIR model. Full code in the form of short tutorials: lnkd.in/difJYKTF

Made a map of dengue incidence in Argentina in 2018-2024 this weekend. Interesting to see the number of provinces affected as of 2024, record-breaking year. github.com/denisecammar...

On the verge: outbreak risk after two years of record-breaking dengue epidemics in Brazil
Over the last seasons of dengue, the disease has reached record-breaking numbers of confirmed cases both globally and in the Americas.1 That is speculated to be a consequence of two-fold climate drive...

In September in Geneva we applauded a major milestone in the effort to eradicate measles and rubella viruses from the face of the earth.

Today an unvaccinated child has died of measles in the country where the vaccine was developed.

This is not greatness.

Human H5N1 bird flu cases by year and country, according to the CDC.

After eight years of almost no cases, 2024 is set to be one of the years with the most reported cases. The US stands for the vast majority of cases.

There were a handful of human cases this summer & now we’re pushing 70. And it’s flu season. The more opportunities for adaptation & reassortment, the greater the risk of a potential pandemic virus emerging.

Nobody knows if this will happen but human infections are trending in the wrong direction.
1. Looks like +2 human #H5N1 #birdflu cases in California, workers exposed to infected livestock. One, from Stanislaus County, seems to have been already confirmed by #CDC; looks like the 2nd, in LA County, still hasn't made it to the @capublichealth.bsky.social or CDC tallies. Brings US total to 67
