    Snippet: The first component, f early (Ï„ ), models early HIV transmission during the acute infection stage. We assume that f early (Ï„ ) has a mean of 3 months (Hollingsworth et al., 2008) and a shape parameter of 3. The second component, f late , models HIV transmission during the asymptomatic stage and the disease stage (after progression to Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS)). We assume that f late (Ï„ ) has a mean of 10 years (Brookmeyer and .....
    Document: The first component, f early (Ï„ ), models early HIV transmission during the acute infection stage. We assume that f early (Ï„ ) has a mean of 3 months (Hollingsworth et al., 2008) and a shape parameter of 3. The second component, f late , models HIV transmission during the asymptomatic stage and the disease stage (after progression to Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS)). We assume that f late (Ï„ ) has a mean of 10 years (Brookmeyer and Goedert, 1989; Nishiura, 2019) and a shape parameter of 2 (to roughly match the wide generationinterval distribution of HIV (Fraser et al., 2004) ). Finally, p early is the proportion of early HIV transmission.
