Peer Review #3 of "Exploring the socio-economic and environmental components of infectious diseases using multivariate geovisualization: West Nile Virus (v0.1)"
Abstract:Background. This study postulates that underlying environmental conditions and a susceptible population's socioeconomic status should be explored simultaneously to adequately understand a vector borne disease infection risk. Here we focus on West Nile Virus (WNV), a mosquito borne pathogen, as a case study for spatial data visualization of environmental characteristics of a vector's habitat alongside human demographic composition for understanding potential public health risks of infectious disease.
