Bayesian estimation of Lassa virus epidemiological parameters: Implications for spillover prevention using wildlife vaccination.
Lassa virus is a significant burden on human health throughout its endemic region in West Africa, with most human infections the result of spillover from the primary rodent reservoir of the virus, the natal multimammate mouse, M. natalensis. Here we develop a Bayesian methodology for estimating epid...
