    Snippet: Epidemiologists quantify the ability of infectious agents to spread by estimating the basic reproduction number (R0) statistic (Delamater et al. 2019) , which measures the average number of people each contagious person infects. According to the World Health Organization (2020), the new coronavirus is transmitting at an R0 around 1.4-2.5, which is greater than seasonal influenza viruses that spread every year around the planet (median R0 of 1. 28.....
    Document: Epidemiologists quantify the ability of infectious agents to spread by estimating the basic reproduction number (R0) statistic (Delamater et al. 2019) , which measures the average number of people each contagious person infects. According to the World Health Organization (2020), the new coronavirus is transmitting at an R0 around 1.4-2.5, which is greater than seasonal influenza viruses that spread every year around the planet (median R0 of 1. 28, Biggerstaff et al. 2014) . To anticipate the timing and magnitude of public interventions and mitigate the adverse consequences on public health and economy, understanding the factors associated with the survival and transmission of SARS-CoV-2 is urgent.
