    Snippet: This matrix is referred to as a next-generation matrix (NGM) in a fully susceptible population [8] . Using this matrix, we derive the instantaneous time-dependent effective reproduction number, R t , for the entire transmission dynamics from the largest eigenvalue of the NGM. Under the assumption that the per-contact infection probability and the generation interval are consistent over time regardless of the type of infection, the NGM quantifies .....
    Document: This matrix is referred to as a next-generation matrix (NGM) in a fully susceptible population [8] . Using this matrix, we derive the instantaneous time-dependent effective reproduction number, R t , for the entire transmission dynamics from the largest eigenvalue of the NGM. Under the assumption that the per-contact infection probability and the generation interval are consistent over time regardless of the type of infection, the NGM quantifies the within type and inter-type patterns of transmission [9] . The sum of the value in column j is the reproduction number for a specific type j.
