We thus obtained the effective 148 reproductive number R j ini = 1.0905 to represent the transmissibility during the second wave of transmission 149 at location j. Note that this number represents the epidemic growth under control measures before community 150 spread. R j ini indicates the average number of transmissions that are generated from the secondary cases (Sec) 151 before the community spread. Because the nation-wide alert has already been received at different cities after 152 31 December, 2019, and many infectious disease control measures have been implemented, R j ini was 153 expected to be lower than R 0 . Given the R j ini number, we used the cumulative number of secondary cases 154 CI Sec at the location j to calculate the probability of outbreak emergence as p j,
