To use face masks or not after Covid-19 vaccination? An impact analysis using mathematical modeling
(Frontiers Media, 2022)
The question of whether to drop or to continue wearing face masks especially after being
vaccinated among the public is controversial. This is sourced from the efficacy levels
of COVID-19 vaccines developed, approved, ...
Dispersal dynamics of SARS-CoV-2 lineages during the first epidemic wave in New York City
(Public Library of Science, 2021)
During the first phase of the COVID-19 epidemic, New York City rapidly became the epicenter of the pandemic in the United States. While molecular phylogenetic analyses have previously highlighted multiple introductions and ...
