Methods for estimating the case fatality ratio for a novel, emerging infectious disease. [PDF]
During the course of an epidemic of a potentially fatal disease, it is important that the case fatality ratio be well estimated. The authors propose a novel method for doing so based on the Kaplan-Meier survival procedure, jointly considering two ...

Comparative analysis of environmental persistence of SARS-CoV-2 variants and seasonal coronaviruses
Conducting persistence studies of infectious severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) on environmental surfaces may require a biosafety level 3 (BSL-3) laboratory. We aimed to compare the environmental persistence of BSL-2 level human
