T190 0-341 Sentence denotes In the context of a growing epidemic, sensitivity analysis using the method of Latin hypercube sampling and partial rank correlation (Marino et al., 2008) showed that the fraction of travellers detected was moderately sensitive to all parameters considered -- most coefficient estimates fell between 0.1 and 0.3 in absolute value (Figure 4).
T191 342-470 Sentence denotes Sensitivity to R0 was somewhat higher than sensitivity to other parameters, but the difference was not statistically remarkable.
T192 471-568 Sentence denotes R0 and the mean incubation period were negatively associated with the fraction of cases detected.
T193 569-822 Sentence denotes An increase in either of these parameters implies an increase in the probability an infected traveller will be undetectable, either because they have been recently exposed (R0), or have not yet progressed to the symptomatic stage (mean incubation time).
T194 823-1030 Sentence denotes The positive association between the fraction of cases detected and the sensitivity of thermal scanners, sensitivity of risk questionnaires, or the fraction of travellers aware of exposure risk is intuitive.
T195 1031-1184 Sentence denotes Finally, the duration from onset to isolation effectively describes the window of time in which we assume a symptomatic individual could initiate travel.
T196 1185-1347 Sentence denotes Here, a wider window is associated with increased screening effectiveness, because it will lead to a higher proportion of infected travellers who are symptomatic.
T197 1348-1440 Sentence denotes Figure 4 shows results from the middle case scenario, in which 25% of cases are subclinical.
T198 1441-1742 Sentence denotes Considering scenarios where more or fewer cases are subclinical, we see increased influence of the factors based on exposure risk (questionnaire sensitivity and the fraction of cases aware of their exposure) as the proportion of cases with detectable symptoms declines (Figure 4—figures supplement 1).
