SUMMARYThree different methods were used for estimating the basic reproductive number (R0) from data on 110 outbreaks of highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) subtype H5N1 that occurred in village poultry in Romania, 12 May to 6 June 2006. We assumed a village-level infectious period of 7 days. The methods applied were GIS-based identification of nearest infectious neighbour (based on either Euclidean or road distance), the method of epidemic doubling time, and a susceptible–infectious (SI) modelling approach. In general, the estimated basic reproductive numbers were consistent: 2·14, 1·95, 2·68 and 2·21, respectively. Although the true basic reproductive number in this epidemic is unknown, results suggest that the use of a range of methods might be useful for characterizing epidemics of infectious diseases. Once the basic reproductive number has been estimated, better control strategies and targeted surveillance programmes can be designed.

. . . Medicine . . . is a great science, for all its failings. I reject completely the conventional view which says that mathematics and physics are the true, basic sciences; that other sciences enjoy merit and intellectual vigour only to the extent that they rest on mathematics and physics. It is true that one can work "down" from medicine through pathology to genetics and cell biology, to biochemistry, to chemistry, and thence to physics and mathematics. Equally one can work "up" from biology and medicine to demography, sociology, economics, and political science. But these hierarchies represent descriptive conveniences and conventions, classifications of components in terms of size. They cannot be listings of value or of intellectual achievement. Biologists and doctors have nothing to be ashamed of in front of their colleagues in the physical sciences.

The author states it to be his object, in this and in some subsequent papers, to examine specially the composition and properties of the compounds of palladium, platinum, and gold; and to ascertain how far they agree, and in what they differ, as to the laws of combination to which these compounds are subjected. He commences with the investigation of the compounds of palladium, employing for that purpose a portion of that metal with which he was furnished by the Royal Society out of the quantity bequeathed to the Society by the late Dr. Wollaston. He describes the mode of obtaining the protoxide of palladium, and enters into the analysis of the hydrated oxide, the black suboxide, and the true basic carbonate of that metal; detailing their properties and the formulae which express their mode of composition. The chlorides of palladium form the next subject of inquiry; and the author concludes from his experiments that the loss of chlorine which the protochloride undergoes, when kept for some time in a state of fusion at a red heat, is perfectly definite; and also that the loss represents one half of the chlorine which the salt contains. But in the double salts formed by the protochloride of palladium with the chlorides of the alkaline metals, he finds that the similarity of constitution usually occurring between the compounds of ammonium and potassium is violated. From his analysis of the oxychloride of palladium the author concludes that it is quite analogous to the ordinary oxychloride of copper. He then examines a variety of products derived from the action of a solution of caustic potash on solutions of ammonia-chlorides of potassium. Their properties he finds to indicate analogies between palladium and other metals, whose laws of combination are better known. The sulphate, the ammonia-sulphates, the nitrates, and the ammonia-nitrates of palladium, and lastly, the double oxalate of palladium and ammonium, are, in like manner, subjected to examination in a detailed series of experiments. The second section of the paper relates to the compounds of platinum, and comprehends researches on the composition of the protochloride of platinum; on the action of ammonia on biniodide of platinum; and on the action of ammonia on the perchloride of platinum; in which the properties of these substances are detailed and the formulae expressing their composition deduced.

As If

A current dispute in the psychology of conditionals is which possibility is necessary for basic conditionals such as if p then q. There are three accounts with different predictions about the question. The original model theory predicts that if p then q means the disjunction of three possibilities: possibly pq or possibly ¬pq or possibly ¬p¬q ( ¬ = “not”), in which each is unnecessary. The revised model theory predicts that it means the conjunction of the three possibilities, in which each is necessary. The suppositional theory predicts that people interpret it as a hypothetical test based on the conditional probability of p given q, in which only the pq possibility is necessary. Two experiments investigated possibility and truth judgments about basic conditionals given sets that consist of one or more of the four truth table cases of basic conditionals. The results demonstrate that both judgments approximate to the prediction of the suppositional theory rather than the original and revised model theory, and so people show the suppositional interpretation of basic conditionals, in which only the pq possibility is necessary for basic conditionals. Only the pq possibility is necessary for judging a basic conditional true. A true basic conditional mentally implies that only the pq possibility is necessary. These findings support the suppositional theory, but not the original and revised model theory.
