Abstract
Immuno-epidemiology represents a critical intersection of immunology and epidemiology, focusing on how immune responses influence disease transmission patterns within populations. This study explores the dynamic interactions between host immunity, pathogen virulence, and transmission dynamics. By integrating immune response data with epidemiological models, we highlight how variations in immune profiles can alter disease spread, susceptibility, and outbreak severity. The findings demonstrate that robust immunity can limit transmission, while immune evasion strategies employed by pathogens can exacerbate outbreaks. Our research employs advanced modeling techniques and empirical data to elucidate these relationships, offering insights into potential intervention strategies. Ultimately, this work underscores the necessity of a multi-faceted approach to public health, emphasizing the importance of considering immune factors in epidemiological studies to enhance disease control efforts and inform vaccination strategies.
