Quantifying the impact of a broadly protective sarbecovirus vaccine in a future SARS-X pandemic - Nature Communications
Abstract COVID-19 has underscored the need for more timely access to vaccines during future pandemics. This has motivated development of broad-spectrum vaccines providing protection against entire viral families, which could be stockpiled and deployed rapidly following detection.
Climate Change and Malaria: A Call for Robust Analytics

Quantifying the impact of a broadly protective sarbecovirus vaccine in a future SARS-X pandemic
The Coalition for Epidemic Preparedness Innovations (CEPI) funded the investigation into the impact of the 100 Days Mission. Authors maintained full freedom when designing the study and deciding on additional scenarios to explore. ACG has received personal consultancy fees from HSBC, GlaxoSmithKline, Sanofi and WHO related to COVID-19 epidemiology and from The Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria for work unrelated to COVID-19.
Intrinsic randomness in epidemic modelling beyond statistical uncertainty - Communications Physics
Detailed derivations of the methods can be found in the Supplementary Notes, with a high level description of the content found in Supplementary Note 1. A time-varying general branching process proceeds as follows: first, a single individual is infected at some time l, and their infectious period L is distributed with probability density function g (and cumulative distribution function G).
Comparing the responses of the UK, Sweden and Denmark to COVID-19 using counterfactual modelling - Scientific Reports
Abstract The UK and Sweden have among the worst per-capita COVID-19 mortality in Europe. Sweden stands out for its greater reliance on voluntary, rather than mandatory, control measures. We explore how the timing and effectiveness of control measures in the UK, Sweden and Denmark shaped COVID-19 mortality in each country, using a counterfactual assessment: what would the impact have been, had each country adopted the others’ policies?
