Estimating effective reproduction number revisited [PDF]
Infectious Disease Modelling, 2023 Accurately estimating the effective reproduction number is crucial for characterizing the transmissibility of infectious diseases to optimize interventions and responses during epidemic outbreaks. In this study, we improve the estimation of the effective

The basic reproduction number, $R_0$, in structured populations [PDF]
Mathematical Biosciences, 2019 In this paper, we provide a straightforward approach to defining and deriving the key epidemiological quantity, the basic reproduction number, $R_0$, for Markovian epidemics in structured populations.

Basic reproduction number and effective reproduction number for North Cyprus for fighting Covid-19
Қарағанды университетінің хабаршысы. Математика сериясы, 2020 The aim of this paper is to show how North Cyprus fought with Covid-19 by using R0 and Rt, as herd immunity. For that purpose, we used a SEIR model for basic reproduction number, R0, and calculated Rt values by using R0 values. North Cyprus is the first

Complexity of the Basic Reproduction Number (R0) [PDF]
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2019 The basic reproduction number (R0), also called the basic reproduction ratio or rate or the basic reproductive rate, is an epidemiologic metric used to describe the contagiousness or transmissibility of infectious agents.

Interpretation of the Basic and Effective Reproduction Number [PDF]
Journal of Preventive Medicine and Public Health, 2020 In epidemiology, the basic reproduction number (R0) is a term that describes the expected number of infections generated by 1 case in a susceptible population.

Estimating the instantaneous reproduction number (Rt) by using particle filter [PDF]
Infectious Disease Modelling, 2023 Background: Monitoring the transmission of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) requires accurate estimation of the effective reproduction number (Rt). However, existing methods for calculating Rt may yield biased estimates if important real-world factors,

Increasing situational awareness through nowcasting of the reproduction number [PDF]
Frontiers in Public HealthBackgroundThe time-varying reproduction number R is a critical variable for situational awareness during infectious disease outbreaks; however, delays between infection and reporting of cases hinder its accurate estimation in real-time.
