Assessing the potential impact of transmission during prolonged viral shedding on the effect of lockdown relaxation on COVID-19.
A key parameter in epidemiological modeling which characterizes the spread of an infectious disease is the generation time, or more generally the distribution of infectiousness as a function of time since infection. There is increasing evidence supporting a prolonged viral shedding window for COVID-...
