Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Measles is one of the world’s most infectious communicable diseases. Although almost entirely preventable by vaccine, there have been recent case surges, with almost 9.8 million cases reported globally in 2019, the highest seen since 1996. This spike in measles cases, can be attributed to several factors including vaccine hesitancy, low vaccine confidence, international travel, and poor access to vaccines. While measles cases appear to be declining across the globe since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, a catastrophic measles resurgence following the pandemic is likely. With the increased public health demands related to the COVID-19 pandemic, healthcare resources have been prioritized differently, resulting in disruptions in measles case surveillance, investigation, and vaccination efforts. This shift has resulted in many measles vaccination campaigns being postponed, resulting in a large measles immunity gap in some of the world’s most vulnerable populations. With first dose measles coverage rates stagnating at 85% and likely dropping with the recent halt of many vaccination campaigns, strategic measles vaccination interventions are urgently needed.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
