Correlation of viral loads in disease transmission chains could bias early estimates of the reproduction number [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Early estimates of the transmission properties of a newly emerged pathogen are critical to an effective public health response, and are often based on limited outbreak data. Here, we use simulations to investigate a potential source of bias in such estimates, arising from correlations between the viral load of cases in transmission chains. We show that
