System Dynamic Modeling & Decision Tree Analysis to capture uncertainties of
intervention choices and weather patterns on West Nile Virus disease outcomes
This research was kindly supported by the
Research Alliance for the Prevention of
Infectious Disease (RAPID) Network created
through a grant from the Saskatchewan Heath
Research Foundation
Introduction
•
West Nile Virus (WNV) belongs to a group of disease-causing
viruses called flaviviruses, which include yellow fever,
Japanese encephalitis and dengue
Found in both tropic and temperate regions
Two genetic lineages:
 lineage 1 strains are found in North America, Europe,
Africa, Asia, and Australia; Can lead to severe inflammation
of spinal cord (meningitis) and/or brain (encephalitis).
 lineage 2 strains have been isolated only in sub-Saharan
Africa and Madagascar. Little severe human disease.

System Dynamic (SD) Modeling Mosquito and
Human WNV Disease Progression PHC 1, 2, 3, 4, 6
• Incubation period of WNV is believed to range from 3 to 14 days
• 80% of WNV infections asymptomatic
• > 95% symptomatic infections are non-neurological (e.g., West
Nile Fever)
• < 1% symptomatic infections are neurological (e.g. meningitis
and/or encephalitis)

• Organizes decisions/actions into a logical tree structure
taking into account uncertainties and consequences.
• Consequences (outcomes) can be derived from running the
SD model on particular scenarios of decisions that are made
when faced with uncertainty.
• Backward induction will enable the decision maker to identify
the optimal decision rules to bring about the most desired
outcome.
• Takes into consideration present and historical
uncertainties (e.g., temperature)
Summary
• SD modeling is a computer tool used to understand complex
issues and problems often associated with many causal
forces that create the problem or positively/negatively
contribute to it.
• Takes into account delays (e.g., time from contact to
symptoms of a disease), interactions (e.g., chronic diseases
with infectious diseases), feedbacks (e.g., behavioral changes
from altered risk perceptions), nonlinear relationships (e.g.,
risk, costs), and heterogeneities (e.g., differences in infection
rates between sexes)
• SD models are not about forecasting the future, but rather on
how actions in the present can trigger plausible reactions over
time
• New insights (e.g., on clinical disease progression of WNV) and
changing conditions (e.g., weather patterns) or goals (e.g.,
target host for vaccination) are incorporated into SD models

WNV Control Planning PHC 3, 4, 6
• WNV control in Saskatchewan: Integrative pest management
(IPM) approach
 larval source reduction
 surveillance and monitoring of larval vector species
 public messages about increasing disease transmission, and
personal protective equipment (e.g., use of DEET repellent,
wearing long sleeves, and avoiding outdoor activities at
dusk/dawn).
 use of ultra-low volume (ULV) malathion spraying for the
control of adult mosquitoes (adulticiding) as last resort.
• WNV sensitivity registry feasibility study: involved collecting
information on sensitivity registries and telephone information
lines for SHR to assist them in making informed decisions on the
usefulness of each for fulfill the obligation to protect the public’s
health in the context of adult mosquito control programs.

Risk communication include weekly average # C. tarsalis, minimum

amalgamating 2003-present data relevant for SHR into a single
database for easy public messaging & surveillance.

Highest risk of transmission to humans when: 1) WNV in birds; 2)

• Birds: Passive - specimens turned in by public to Canadian
Cooperative Wildlife Health Centre are tested for WNV
• Mosquitoes:
Larval testing  presence & geographic location of Culex
tarsalis mosquito (this species of primary concern in
Saskatchewan for transmission of WNV)
Adult trapping  presence of C. tarsalis in proportion to other
mosquito species
Pool testing  testing batches of Culex mosquitoes for WNV
• Environment: Growing degree days  the # of days the
average nightly temperature above 15°C, ideal for mosquito
breeding; 300-350 GDD enough heat accumulation for 4 to 5
generations of mosquitoes over the summer
• Horses: Passive - veterinary reports
• Humans: Active - physician reporting (reportable disease)

WNV Surveillance & Risk Communication PHC 2, 3, 4, 6
• Saskatchewan suffered the highest incidence of WNV
in the country in 2003 and 2007
• Saskatoon Health Region (SHR) reported 6.5% and 25% of
the provincial cases in 2003 and 2007, respectively

This project provides:
• multiple stakeholders with useful information & computer tools for
understanding the dynamics of WNV
• ability to use current and historic uncertainty to make informed
decisions on optimal intervention measures for improved health
outcomes.
• an in-depth review of sensitivity registries and telephone
information lines for informing the public regarding adulticiding
should it ever be necessary to control for WNV
• amalgamated mosquito trap data from 2003-present in a format
suitable for easy communication of health risk to the public
