Estimation of the Basic Reproductive Number and Mean Serial Interval of a Novel Pathogen in a Small, Well-Observed Discrete Population

Table 1

Univariate and bivariate estimates of the model using Poisson distributed serial interval, different k values, and number of simulation iterations.

The following parameters were used: (a) R₀ = 1.8, T_g = 2.5, k = 10; (b) R₀ = 1.8, T_g = 2.5, k = 25; (c) R₀ = 3.0, T_g = 6.25, k = 10; (d) R₀ = 3.0, T_g = 6.25, k = 25. PI: prediction interval.
