This modelling study led by @AmyKayeWinter at #UGAPublicHealth found new approaches are needed to eliminate measles and rubella in countries with the highest disease burden. Collaborators include @cmmid_lshtm @PennState @JohnsHopkinsSPH @CDCGlobal @IDMOD @WHO

What do I mean when I say “endemic” transmission? Roughly, the use of this term falls into one of two camps: “self-sustaining transmission” or “regular and predictable transmission”. The former is the more public health definition, the latter is the more math definition. A 🧵

This article in @ConversationUS is a nice piece on our work published today in @sciencemagazine on "Measles and canonical path to elimination," Thanks @MaggieConvo for helping us pull it together. @TheFerrariLab @JustinLessler @CJEMetcalf @andrewazman @JHIDDynamics

New in @sciencemagazine: @theferrarilab + @AmyKayeWinter + colleagues identified the "canonical path" countries travel as they move toward eliminating #measles. Guess one nation that's going backward? (Hint: 🇺🇸) via @PSUScience @JohnsHopkinsSPH https://t.co/c7eYGs0YpN

Measles follows theoretically dictated regimes as we move to elimination. Congratulations to Matt Graham, @AmyKayeWinter @TheFerrariLab Bryan Grenfell Bill Moss @andrewazman @CJEMetcalf and @JustinLessler on the culmination of years of hard work. https://t.co/OVO5IJK2g3
