Estimating effective reproduction number revisited [PDF]

open access: yesInfectious 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

Basic reproduction number and effective reproduction number for North Cyprus for fighting Covid-19

open access: yesҚарағанды 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]

open access: yesEmerging 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.

Differences between the true reproduction number and the apparent reproduction number of an epidemic time series

open access: yesEpidemics
The time-varying reproduction number R(t) measures the number of new infections per infectious individual and is closely correlated with the time series of infection incidence by definition. The timings of actual infections are rarely known, and analysis
