From: Higher free-roaming dog density sustains rabies virus transmission in Haiti
Relationships between free-roaming dog (FRD) density and rabies-related outcomes (i) effective reproduction number (Re), (ii) rabies incidence rate among dogs, and (iii) reported dog-bite rate in humans are shown for two model classes adjusted for a case detection rate of 5%. Piecewise models (top row) capture potential threshold behavior via breakpoints on FRD, whereas log-anchored models (bottom row) assume a continuous logarithmic relationship passing through FRD = 0. Shaded ribbons represent 95% confidence intervals around fitted means for FRD (all dogs) (red) and rabies-susceptible FRD (blue).
