Using two early transmission chains in Hong Kong, the estimated and were 1.34 (95%CrI: 0.94-2.19) and 0.33 (95%CrI: 0.17-0.62) respectively, inferring 20.3% (95%CrI: 12.7%-29.6%) cases were responsible for 80% of the transmissions of the Omicron epidemic. Compared with Omicron BA.1, Omicron BA.2 had a greater superspreading potential.
利用香港的两条早期传播链,估计的基本再生数 和 分别为 1.34(95%可信区间:0.94-2.19)和 0.33(95%可信区间:0.17-0.62),推断出 20.3%(95%可信区间:12.7%-29.6%)的病例导致了奥密克戎疫情 80%的传播。与奥密克戎 BA.1 相比,奥密克戎 BA.2 具有更大的超级传播潜力。
