Germany's current COVID-19 crisis is mainly driven by the unvaccinated

1 code implementation24 Nov 2021 Benjamin F. Maier, Marc Wiedermann, Angelique Burdinski, Pascal Klamser, Mirjam A. Jenny, Cornelia Betsch, Dirk Brockmann

Here, we estimate that about 67%-76% of all new infections are caused by unvaccinated individuals, implying that only 24%-33% are caused by the vaccinated.

Potential benefits of delaying the second mRNA COVID-19 vaccine dose

no code implementations26 Feb 2021 Benjamin F. Maier, Angelique Burdinski, Annika H. Rose, Frank Schlosser, David Hinrichs, Cornelia Betsch, Lars Korn, Philipp Sprengholz, Michael Meyer-Hermann, Tanmay Mitra, Karl Lauterbach, Dirk Brockmann

Using the situation and conditions in Germany as a reference system, we show that delaying the second vaccine dose is expected to prevent deaths in the four to five digit range, should the incidence resurge.

COVID-19 lockdown induces disease-mitigating structural changes in mobility networks

1 code implementation3 Jul 2020 Frank Schlosser, Benjamin F. Maier, David Hinrichs, Adrian Zachariae, Dirk Brockmann

Studies using digital data sources show that the mobility of individuals was effectively reduced in multiple countries.

Effective containment explains sub-exponential growth in confirmed cases of recent COVID-19 outbreak in Mainland China

3 code implementations18 Feb 2020 Benjamin F. Maier, Dirk Brockmann

To this end we introduce a parsimonious model that captures both, quarantine of symptomatic infected individuals as well as population wide isolation in response to mitigation policies or behavioral changes.

Effective Distances for Epidemics Spreading on Complex Networks

2 code implementations22 Aug 2016 Flavio Iannelli, Andreas Koher, Dirk Brockmann, Philipp Hoevel, Igor M. Sokolov

We show that the recently introduced logarithmic metrics used to predict disease arrival times on complex networks are approximations of more general network-based measures derived from random walks theory.
