    Snippet: N If detection of a case may trigger an outbreak investigation (surveillance scenario 2), the selection bias that arises may lead to R#12G. In addition, 12F always acts as a lower bound to R. An upper bound for R can be obtained if it is possible to specify an upper bound r max for the case detection rate and a lower bound k min for the overdispersion parameter k (see Text S1). If the case detection rate is low, R can be estimated by 12F......
