The proposed section reviews the classical and recent models that try to explain this phenomenon It has been suggested that infection channels between infected and susceptible hosts may provide an advantage, either by allowing parasites to evade the host's immune response [10] , reducing antiviral drug activity [11] , or simply having a more efficient mode of infection. In the second section, a novel model of parasite-host interactions is proposed that accounts for transmission, both through free channels (not involving contact between infected and susceptible hosts), and through infections produced by contact between hosts. This shielding effect can be incorporated into the previous model, assuming the number of parasites released by the death of an infected host as a function of the infection rate [14] .	./cache/cord-029032-s9geepsc.txt	./txt/cord-029032-s9geepsc.txt
