The potential impact of case-area targeted interventions in response to cholera outbreaks: A modeling study
Fig 4
Reduction of epidemic duration with case-area targeted interventions.
Reduction of epidemic duration predicted by the model for the 3 main intervention types with case-area targeted allocation in a 100-m radius starting at 3 different times. Whiskers mark the 2.5th and 97.5th percentiles. Negative numbers of days, such as visible for antibiotics, are due to stochastic effects that arise when an intervention alters the course of a particular epidemic without halting it and leads to a higher number of cases at a later point in time. OCV, oral cholera vaccine; POUWT, point-of-use water treatment.
