Investigating the epidemiology of heartwater (Cowdria ruminantium infection) by means of a transmission dynamics model
A mathematical model of the transmission dynamics of Cowdria ruminantium by the ixodid tick Amblyomma hebraeum in the bovine host is developed and used to investigate the epidemiology of heartwater across a range of vector challenge. The processes described are supported by empirical data. The patte...
