In schools where carriage was found, both sensitive and resistant strains were isolated.
According to the initial assumptions, the duration of protection against disease and carriage was practically permanent.
However, support intervals for clonal carriage rates estimated from the three loci are non-overlapping in this data set.
In our model the recovery rate is assumed to be constant with an exponential distribution of carriage duration.
For each newly infected individual, a duration of carriage was drawn from the exponential distribution with a mean of 4 months.
Uncloaking the meningococcus : dynamics of carriage and disease.
Carriage rates did not differ between girls and boys in the three age groups.
The total rate of potentially infectious contacts is given by the last column, relative to the rate, m, of clearing carriage.
