A ratio and formula for transmission dynamics of COVID-19
Abstract
A
basic reproductive number Ro is an important in dynamics of a newly
emerged and rapidly growing infectious disease outbreak, such as
COVID-19. However, the current researches indicated that Ro for
COVID-19 is quite affected by many other factors or parameters.
To
find the alternative index for the reality of spread of the
COVID-19, a study based on the population of 2,067.14 millions from
seven countries, USA, UK, Brazil, India, South Africa, Canada and
Sweden, was conducted and the weekly new case ratio as index for
mathematical method or anticipatable formula for application was
introduced. In addition, it could be used for evaluating Ro value
and setting a methodological formula or index for other contagious
disease in the future.
