In-depth Correlation Analysis of SARS-CoV-2 Effective Reproduction Number and Mobility Patterns: Three Groups of Countries. [PDF]
J Prev Med Public Health, 2022 Objectives Many governments have imposed—and are still imposing—mobility restrictions to contain the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. However, there is no consensus on whether policy-induced reductions of human mobility effectively reduce ...

A Nonlinear Observer to Estimate the Effective Reproduction Number of Infectious Diseases [PDF]
Communication in Biomathematical Sciences, 2021 In this paper, we design a Nonlinear Observer (NLO) to estimate the effective reproduction number (Rt) of infectious diseases. The NLO is designed from a discrete-time augmented Susceptible-Infectious-Removed (SIR) model. The observer gain is obtained by

Early phylogenetic estimate of the effective reproduction number of SARS‐CoV‐2 [PDF]
Journal of Medical Virology, 2020 To reconstruct the evolutionary dynamics of the 2019 novel‐coronavirus recently causing an outbreak in Wuhan, China, 52 SARS‐CoV‐2 genomes available on 4 February 2020 at Global Initiative on Sharing All Influenza Data were analyzed.

Country-Wise Forecast Model for the Effective Reproduction Number Rt of Coronavirus Disease
Frontiers in Physics, 2020 Due to the particularities of SARS-CoV-2, public health policies have played a crucial role in the control of the COVID-19 pandemic. Epidemiological parameters for assessing the stage of the outbreak, such as the Effective Reproduction Number (Rt), are ...

Improved estimation of the effective reproduction number with heterogeneous transmission rates and reporting delays [PDF]
Scientific ReportsIn the face of an infectious disease, a key epidemiological measure is the basic reproduction number, which quantifies the average secondary infections caused by a single case in a susceptible population.

Estimates of mpox effective reproduction number in Spain, April-August 2022. [PDF]
Epidemiol Infect, 2023 Abstract We analysed the transmission of the human mpox virus in Spain by estimating the effective reproduction number of the disease from official surveillance data. Our computations show that this decreased steadily after an initial burst phase, dropping below 1 on July 12, and thus the outbreak was expected to reduce in the following weeks ...

Assessing the Time Evolution of COVID-19 Effective Reproduction Number in Brazil
Anais da Academia Brasileira de CiênciasIn this paper, we use a Bayesian method to estimate the effective reproduction number ( R ( t )), in the context of monitoring the time evolution of the COVID-19 pandemic in Brazil at different geographic levels.

Practical considerations for measuring the effective reproductive number, R t [PDF]
PLOS Computational Biology, 2020 Abstract Estimation of the effective reproductive number, R t , is important for detecting changes in disease transmission over time. During the COVID-19 pandemic, policymakers and public health officials are using
