Show abstract
The time-varying reproduction number (Rt) is a critical quantity in monitoring an infectious disease outbreak. We propose a new method for estimating Rt from an infectivity profile, expressed as a generation time distribution, and a time series of probabilistic estimates of disease incidence, modelled as log-normally distributed random variables. This is a common output of disease incidence models that are based on Poisson or negative binomial regression of case counts with a logarithmic link fu...
