Estimating and explaining the spread of COVID-19 at the county level in the USA

2020-06-20

Abstract excerpt

The basic reproduction number, R 0 , determines the rate of spread of a communicable disease and therefore gives fundamental information needed to plan public health interventions. Estimated R 0 values are only useful, however, if they accurately predict the future potential rate of spread. Using mortality records, we estimated the rate of spread of COVID-19 among 160 counties and county-aggregates in the USA. Mos...
