Diagnostic serial interval as an alternative measure of clinical serial interval using ancestral COVID-19 waves in Hong Kong and mainland China

2025-10-17

Abstract excerpt

To estimate the reproductive numbers (R t ) , it is essential to infer generation time, which is often approximated by serial interval (SI) . The SI based on clinical outcomes is not free from recall biases and even such clinical information is not always available. We defined diagnostic serial interval (SI d ) , as a potential alternative metric and compared with traditional SI . We analyzed confirmed COVID-19 ca...
