• High rates of forward transmission events after acute/early HIV-1 infection. (2007, result): “Our findings represent broad populationbased surveillance and are consistent with a recent report from the Rekai study in Uganda in regard to primary/early infection [6].”
• Deciphering Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1 Transmission and Early Envelope Diversification by Single-Genome Amplification and Sequencing (2008, background): “particular routes of transmission increase the transmission efficiency of HIV-1 (28, 29, 48, 49) and may favor the transmission of multiple HIV-1 variants.”
• Identification and characterization of transmitted and early founder virus envelopes in primary HIV-1 infection (2008, background): “We note, however, that our observation of a low number of transmitted viruses (range, 1–5; median 1) is consistent with epidemiological observations of the relative inefficiency of virus transmission by most sexual routes (1, 29).”
• Mathematical models of infectious disease transmission (2008, methodology): “Such an approach has been followed, for example, for HIV-1 (Ref”
