Understanding heterogeneities in mosquito-bite exposure and infection distributions for the elimination of lymphatic filariasis
It is well known that individuals in the same community can be exposed to a highly variable number of mosquito bites. This heterogeneity in bite exposure has consequences for the control of vector-borne diseases because a few people may be contributing significantly to transmission. However, very fe...
