Estimating the Generation Interval from the Incidence Rate, the Optimal Quarantine Duration and the Efficiency of Fast Switching Periodic Protocols for Coronavirus (COVID- 19) Disease

2021-10-19

Abstract excerpt

The transmissibility of an infectious disease is usually quantified in terms of the reproduction number Rt representing, at a given time, the average number of secondary cases caused by an infected individual. Recent studies have enlightened the central role played by w(z), the distribution of generation times z, namely the time between successive infections in a transmission chain. In standard approaches this qua...
