T105 |
0-223 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Within the existing literature, two studies estimated under-estimation of coronavirus cases: the investigations by Zhao and collaborators (Zhao et al., 2020) and by Read et al. (Read, Bridgen, Cummings, Ho, & Jewell, 2020). |
T106 |
224-450 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Specifically, Zhao and coworkers (Zhao et al., 2020) have assessed from a quantitative standpoint the under-reporting rate of coronavirus cases, modeling the epidemic growth curve using the exponential growing Poisson process. |
T107 |
451-542 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Authors computed the number of under-reported coronavirus cases to be 469 (95% CI 403–540). |
T108 |
543-637 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Based on this estimate, the basic reproduction number was found to be 2.56 (95% CI 2.49–2.63). |
T109 |
638-834 |
Sentence |
denotes |
In a previous version of the investigation, released in the bioRxiv pre-print server, the reproduction number was computed to oscillate between 3.30 (95% CI 2.73–3.96) and 5.47 (95% CI 4.16–7.10). |
T110 |
835-947 |
Sentence |
denotes |
The basic reproduction number was also found to be associated with 0-fold–2-fold increase in the reporting rate. |
T111 |
948-1084 |
Sentence |
denotes |
More in detail, with report rates increasing over the time, the mean value was statistically likely to be higher than 3 but less than 5. |
T112 |
1085-1335 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Read and coauthors (Read et al., 2020) used a deterministic SEIR model, assuming coronavirus cases being Poisson distributed and with parameter inference being achieved by maximum likelihood estimation utilizing the Nelder-Mead optimization approach. |
T113 |
1336-1624 |
Sentence |
denotes |
According to the dynamics transmission model, an ascertainment rate of 5.0% (95% CI 3.6–7.4) was computed and, based on this, authors estimated that as of January 22nd, 2020 in Wuhan there were 14,464 (95% CI 6510–25095) infected individuals, and 21,022 (95% CI 11,090–33,490) infections. |
T114 |
1625-1698 |
Sentence |
denotes |
The basic reproduction number was computed to be 3.11 (95% CI 2.39–4.13). |
T115 |
1699-1821 |
Sentence |
denotes |
In terms of public health implications, in order to stop the outbreak, at least 58–76% of transmissions should be blocked. |
