EpiLPS: a fast and flexible Bayesian tool for near real-time estimation of the time-varying reproduction number
2021-12-05
Abstract excerpt
In infectious disease epidemiology, the instantaneous reproduction number R ( t ) is a timevarying metric defined as the average number of secondary infections generated by individuals who are infectious at time t . It is therefore a crucial epidemiological parameter that assists public health decision makers in the management of an epidemic.
