  bibo_abstract:
  - Coinfections with multiple pathogens can result in complex within-host dynamics
    affecting virulence and transmission. Whilst multiple infections are intensively
    studied in solitary hosts, it is so far unresolved how social host interactions
    interfere with pathogen competition, and if this depends on coinfection diversity.
    We studied how the collective disease defenses of ants – their social immunity
    ­– influence pathogen competition in coinfections of same or different fungal
    pathogen species. Social immunity reduced virulence for all pathogen combinations,
    but interfered with spore production only in different-species coinfections. Here,
    it decreased overall pathogen sporulation success, whilst simultaneously increasing
    co-sporulation on individual cadavers and maintaining a higher pathogen diversity
    at the community-level. Mathematical modeling revealed that host sanitary care
    alone can modulate competitive outcomes between pathogens, giving advantage to
    fast-germinating, thus less grooming-sensitive ones. Host social interactions
    can hence modulate infection dynamics in coinfected group members, thereby altering
    pathogen communities at the host- and population-level.@eng
