Environmental Drivers of the Spatiotemporal Dynamics of Respiratory Syncytial Virus in the United States
Figure 2
Transmission dynamic model for RSV and fit to age-specific hospitalization data.
(A) Compartmental diagram illustrating the structure of the model. White boxes represent infection states in the model, while grey boxes represent diseased/observed states (severe lower respiratory disease, D, and observed cases, H). (B) Model fit to weekly RSV hospitalization data for California and Florida. The ICD9-CM coded hospitalization data is shown in blue, the rescaled data is shown in green, and the fitted models are shown in red. (C) Age distribution of RSV hospitalizations in California and Florida for hospitalization data and fitted models.
