Structural Econometric Estimation of the Basic Reproduction Number for Covid-19 Across U.S. States and Selected Countries [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 This paper proposes a structural econometric approach to estimating the basic reproduction number ($\mathcal{R}_{0}$) of Covid-19. This approach identifies $\mathcal{R}_{0}$ in a panel regression model by filtering out the effects of mitigating factors on disease diffusion and is easy to implement.

Serial interval and basic reproduction number of SARS-CoV-2 Omicron variant in South Korea
medRxiv, 2021 South Korea is experiencing the community transmission of the SARS-CoV-2 Omicron variant (B.1.1.529). We estimated that the mean of the serial interval was 2.22 days, and the basic reproduction number was 1.90 (95% Credible Interval, 1.50-2.43) for the ...

Global convergence of COVID-19 basic reproduction number and estimation from early-time SIR dynamics
medRxiv, 2020 The SIR ('susceptible-infectious-recovered') formulation is used to uncover the generic spread mechanisms observed by COVID-19 dynamics globally, especially in the early phases of infectious spread.
