PLoS One . 2022 Oct; 17(10):e0258648. PMID: 36301932
Initial efforts to mitigate the COVID-19 pandemic have relied heavily on non-pharmaceutical interventions (NPIs), including physical distancing, hand hygiene, and mask-wearing. However, an effective vaccine is essential to containing the...

Aruffo E, Yuan P, Tan Y, Gatov E, Moyles I, Belair J, et al.
BMC Public Health . 2022 Jul; 22(1):1349. PMID: 35841012
Background: Since December 2020, public health agencies have implemented a variety of vaccination strategies to curb the spread of SARS-CoV-2, along with pre-existing Nonpharmaceutical Interventions (NPIs). Initial strategies focused on...

Yuan P, Li J, Aruffo E, Gatov E, Li Q, Zheng T, et al.
CMAJ Open . 2022 Apr; 10(2):E367-E378. PMID: 35440484
Background: Globally, nonpharmaceutical interventions for COVID-19, including stay-at-home policies, limitations on gatherings and closure of public spaces, are being lifted. We explored the effect of lifting a stay-at-home policy on...

Belair J, Nekka F, Milton J
Chaos . 2021 Jul; 31(6):060401. PMID: 34241319
The concept of Dynamical Diseases provides a framework to understand physiological control systems in pathological states due to their operating in an abnormal range of control parameters: this allows for...

Li J, Yuan P, Heffernan J, Zheng T, Ogden N, Sander B, et al.
Bull World Health Organ . 2020 Dec; 98(12):830-841D. PMID: 33293743
Objective: To design models of the spread of coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) in Wuhan and the effect of Fangcang shelter hospitals (rapidly-built temporary hospitals) on the control of the epidemic. Methods:...

Paquin-Lefebvre F, Belair J
Acta Biotheor . 2019 Jul; 68(1):5-19. PMID: 31350630
We present an age-structured model for erythropoiesis in which the mortality of mature cells is described empirically by a physiologically realistic probability distribution of survival times. Under some assumptions, the...

J Pharmacokinet Pharmacodyn . 2017 Dec; 45(1):59-77. PMID: 29236223

We develop a mathematical model of platelet, megakaryocyte, and thrombopoietin dynamics in humans. We show that there is a single stationary solution that can undergo a Hopf bifurcation, and use...
