Motivation Researchers have explored the possible mechanism(s) underlying the recurrence of epidemics and persistence of co-circulating virus strains of influenza types between pandemics. We (CHALL I and II) began to explore role of cross-immunity in 1988 with the aid of mathematical models JMB Paper 1988: Castillo-Chavez, Hethcote, Andreasen, Levin and Liu 11/17/2018 Arizona State University

Influenza A reemerges year after year, despite the fact that infection leads to lifetime immunity to a strain 11/17/2018 Arizona State University

Modeling the Dynamics of Two-Strain Influenza Strains with Isolation and Partial Cross-Immunity Previous Results (CHAL I and II, plus): Herd-immunity, cross-immunity and age-structure are possible factors supporting influenza strain coexistence and/or disease oscillations Set up: We put two-influenza strains under various levels of (interference) competition with isolation periods and cross-immunity Some New Results (SIAM 2005 (Vol. 65: 3, ) and …) We establish that cross-immunity and host isolation lead to period epidemic outbreaks (sustained oscillations) where the periods of oscillations mimic those in real data Multiple coexistence of strains even under sub-threshold conditions Oscillatory coexistence is established via Hopf-bifurcation theory and numerical simulations using realistic parameter values 11/17/2018 Arizona State University

The Reservoirs of Influenza A Viruses

Emergence and Reemergence of “New” Influenza A Virus in Humans Molecular changes associated with emergence of a highly pathogenic H5N2 influenza virus in chicken in Mexico In 1994 H5N2 (pathogenic) in Mexican chickens related to H5N2 isolated in shorebirds (Delaware Bay, US, These H5N2 isolates replicated, spread rapidly and were not highly pathogenic. However, in 1995 virus became highly pathogenic and HA acquired an insert of 2 basic amino acids (Arg-Lys) possibly due to recombination and a mutation. The emergence of H5N1 influenza in Hong Kong H5N1 (nonpathogenic) flu could have spread from migrating shorebirds to ducks by fecal contamination of water. The virus was transmitted to chickens and became established in live bird markets in Hong Kong. During transmission between different species, the virus became highly pathogenic for chickens and occasionally was transmitted to humans from chickens in the markets. Despite high pathogenicity for chickens (and humans), H5N1 were nonpathogenic for ducks and geese. 11/17/2018 Arizona State University Pathogenic: Capable of causing disease

Schematic Model for Influenza Virus Particles The 8 influenza A viral RNA segments encode 10 recognized gene products (PB1,PB2, and PA polymerases, HA, NP, NA, M1 and M2 proteins, and NS1 and NS2 proteins. Surface proteins HA (hemagglutinin) and NA (neuraminidase) are the principal targets of the humoral immune response (i.e. response involving antibodies). 11/17/2018 Arizona State University Figure: Modified w/permission from H.N.

Influenza Strains and Subtypes and the role of Cross-immunity
H1N1 H2N2 Influenza type A H3N2 Little evidence support the existence of cross-immunity between influenza A subtypes Houston and Seattle studies show that cross-immunity exists between strains within the same subtype. 11/17/2018 Arizona State University

Influenza Epidemiology
Antigenic drift (resulting in minor yearly epidemics) Antigenic shift (resulting in major epidemics with periods of ~ 27 years) Seasonal occurrence Low transmission rates out-of-season Explosive onset of epidemics Rapid termination of epidemics despite the continued abundance of susceptibles (Tacker) Highest attack rates observed among children Highest risk group observed in the elderly 11/17/2018 Arizona State University

What is Cross-Immunity?
Infection with an influenza subtype A strain may provide cross protection against other antigenically similar circulating strains. 11/17/2018 Arizona State University

Experimental Evidence of Cross-immunity (1)
1974: Study shows <3% with prior exposure to A/Hong Kong/68 (H3N2) OR A PRIOR A/ENGLAND/72 (H3N2) GOT A/Port Chalmers/73 VS 23% with NO prior experience got infected 1976: Appearance of A/Victoria/75 (H3N2) Relative Frequency of First Infected/Previously Infected (By another strain of H3N2 subtype was approximately 41%) 1977: Co-circulating H1N2 strains Individuals born before 1952 “GOT” a strain of H1N1 Detection of antibody-positive sera YOUNG: Changed from 0% to 9% OLDER: Did not changed (remained at 9%) 11/17/2018 Arizona State University

Experimental Evidence of Cross-immunity (2)
1979: Christ’s Hospital study shows that past infection with H1N1 protected 55%. Protection (%): (Rate in ‘susceptibles’-Rate in ‘immunes)X100 Rate in ‘susceptibles’ 1982: (Glezen) No cross-immunity between subtypes H1N1 & H3N2 11/17/2018 Arizona State University

Couch and Kasel (1983) Cross-immunity
Experimental results indicate that cross-immunity shares the following features: Exhibits subtype specificity Exhibits cross-reactivity to variants within a subtype, but with reduced cross-reactivity for variants that are antigenically distant from the initial variant. Exhibits a duration of at least five to eight years Be able to account for the observation that resistance to re-infection with H1N1 may last 20 years 11/17/2018 Arizona State University

Early Modeling Approaches
In 1975 epidemiological interference of virus populations was introduced [Dietz]. In 1989 age-structure, proportionate mixing and cross- immunity are studied [Castillo-Chavez, et.al]. In 1989 interactions between human and animal host populations are studied as a source of recombinants in strains and cross-immunity. 11/17/2018 Arizona State University

Characteristic Equation
The characteristic equation has a unique real dominant solution, that is, its real part is larger than the real part of all other solutions separable solutions. 11/17/2018 Arizona State University

R0<1, Disease-free State Is Stable
The characteristic equation has a unique dominant real solution. That is, the real part of all other solutions is less than this dominant solution; The dominant solution is negative iff R0<1; The dominant solution is positive iff R0>1; Whenever R0<1, the disease-free steady state is locally asymptotically stable. 11/17/2018 Arizona State University

Qualitative Analysis SIR model undergoes a global forward (transcritical) bifurcation. If R0 < = 1, the disease-free equilibrium (1,0) is globally asymptotically stable while if R0 > 1, the unique endemic equilibrium is globally asymptotically stable. 11/17/2018 Arizona State University

Endemic Steady States 11/17/2018 Arizona State University

Endemic Steady States One can formally solve for the steady states. The existence of endemic steady states is determined by the roots of the following equation: f(B*) is a decreasing function of B* with f()=0. R0>1, there exists a unique endemic (e.g. non trivial) steady states; R0<1, an endemic steady state does not exist. 11/17/2018 Arizona State University

Qualitative Analysis SIR model undergoes a global forward (transcritical) bifurcation. If R0 < = 1, the disease-free equilibrium (1,0) is globally asymptotically stable while if R0 > 1, the unique endemic equilibrium is globally asymptotically stable. 11/17/2018 Arizona State University

Early Results Age-structure is sufficient to drive sustained oscillations in a multi- strain model [Castillo-Chavez, Hethcote, Andreasen, Liu and Levin, 1988 and 1989]. For a heterogeneous population with age-dependent mortality, cross-immunity provides an explanation to the observed recurrence of strains [Castillo-Chavez, et.al]. Cross-immunity without age structure not enough to support sustained oscillations Extensions by Andreasen, Lin, Levin and others to more than two strains. 11/17/2018 Arizona State University

Stability Regions for symmetric strains Bifurcation diagram in the ( , ) plane. The curves divide the regions into sub-regions I, II, III. In region I (II) only strain 1 (2) will be maintained (stable boundary equilibrium or sustained oscillations of a single strain). In Region III, both strains will be maintained (a stable boundary equilibrium or sustained oscillations). Further Observations: (a) As cross-immunity increases the region of stability of each individual strain increases significantly (I and II) (b) As cross-immunity decreases we observe an increase in coexistence region (III) but a decrease in the stability regions of each individual strain ( I and II) 1 2 R 11/17/2018 Arizona State University

Seasonal forcing of the infectious process Observation: The introduction of seasonality in the infection transmission process yields epidemic outbreaks that range from period to quasi-period to possibly chaotic. 11/17/2018 Arizona State University

Two-Strain Model with Seasonality The effects of seasonal variation in the transmission coefficient leads to changes in the qualitative behavior of the system. (3-D trajectories reconstructed using time-delay embedding). 11/17/2018 Arizona State University

Results Multiple and sub-threshold coexistence is possible Conditions that guarantee a winning strain type or coexistence have been established Cross-immunity and isolation can lead to periodic outbreaks (sustained oscillations) Oscillatory coexistence is established via Hopf-bifurcation. Numerical simulations using realistic parameter values show that periods are consistent with observations Approximation have been provided for the period between oscillations (*) region of strain coexistence: results show that coexistence is more likely to for weak immunity levels whereas competitive exclusion occurs for strong immunity levels (**) Probability of having long periods between oscillations is low “approximately” for a somewhat “typical” case. 11/17/2018 Arizona State University
