    Snippet: As a result, the estimated value of the transmission rate b is 0.0835 [95% confidence interval (CI): 0.0835e0.0835] and the transmissibility of hospitalized patients l is 22 (95% CI, 18.7303e25.2697) in Period 1, and b is 0.036 (95% CI, 0.0306e0.0414) and l is 1 (95% CI, 0.1597e1.8403) in Period 2. Also, as mentioned in the previous section, the basic reproduction number is calculated. Using our estimated values of b and l, R 0 is 5.3973(95% CI, .....

Also, as mentioned in the previous section, the basic reproduction number is calculated. Using our estimated values of b and l, R 0 is 5.3973(95% CI, 4.6057e6.1888) in Period 1 and 0.1351 (95% CI, 0.0403e0.2562) in Period 2. The remarkably larger value of R 0 in Period 1 than in Period 2 is considered to be attributed to the superspreader.
