Estimating the epidemic reproduction number from temporally aggregated incidence data: A statistical modelling approach and software tool.
The time-varying reproduction number (Rt) is an important measure of epidemic transmissibility that directly informs policy decisions and the optimisation of control measures. EpiEstim is a widely used opensource software tool that uses case incidence and the serial interval (SI, time between sympto...
