Matt WillemsenInferring the disruption of rabies circulation in vampire bat populations using a betaherpesvirus-vectored transmissible vaccine - We simulate how a future betaherpesvirus-based vaccine might spread. We demonstrate its capacity for high vaccine coverage and long-term prevention of rabies outbreaks. https://www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.2216667120 #VampireBats #rabies #vaccine #TransmissibleVaccine
