    Snippet: Equation (11) is the basic formula for calculating the reproduction number. If ( ) and ( ) are known, one can calculate the reproduction number by using equation (11) . Generally speaking, the number of infectious individuals ( ) is reported for each day, while the function shape of ( ) is unknown. Therefore, many scholars used exponential distribution [5] , normal distribution [5] , Weibull distribution [9, 10] and Gamma distribution [3, 12] to .....
    Document: Equation (11) is the basic formula for calculating the reproduction number. If ( ) and ( ) are known, one can calculate the reproduction number by using equation (11) . Generally speaking, the number of infectious individuals ( ) is reported for each day, while the function shape of ( ) is unknown. Therefore, many scholars used exponential distribution [5] , normal distribution [5] , Weibull distribution [9, 10] and Gamma distribution [3, 12] to approximate ( ). To do so, one needs to collect enough information of , which requires examining a large number of cases. From a practical point of view, it is easier to collect a sample set of cases (at least 30 samples)
