Spatial scales in human movement between reservoirs of infection

Spatial scales in human movement between reservoirs of infection

The life cycle of parasitic organisms that are the cause of much morbidity in humans often depend on reservoirs of infection for transmission into their hosts. Understanding the daily, monthly and yearly movement patterns of individuals between reservoirs is therefore of great importance to implemen...
