Russian contact patterns relevant for the transmission of airborne infectious diseases

Human mixing patterns are the key to understand the transmission of infectious diseases and to inform transmission models used to support public health decision-making. Contact patterns relevant for the transmission of infectious disease have been estimated for several countries. However, no data was available for Russia. We thus performed a population-based survey in Tomsk, Russia, asking participants to record all their contacts in physical person during regular school/working days.

The collected the inferred contact matrices are available here.

The results are published in M. Ajelli & M. Litvinova. Estimating contact patterns relevant to the spread of infectious diseases in Russia. Journal of Theoretical Biology 419:1-7, 2017.
