Abstract

In the Incubation period and serial interval subsection of the Methods, there is an error in the second sentence. "Serial interval"should be "infectious period". A reference is also missing in the third sentence. The corrected subsection is as follows: Incubation period and infectious period The incubation period has not been determined yet and we set it at 5.2 days [13] as a base case and 6.4 days [16] for sensitivity analysis. The infectious period has not been determined and we assumed 9.5 days [17] and 4.6 days for sensitivity, which is 2 times of 2.3 days-that is the difference between 7.5 days serial interval and 5.2 days incubation period [13]. Note that these parameter values were to be fitted with different assumptions for distribution [18]. However, in an average sense, they have few differences with other fitting results and can be used as parameters in our model. With these parameters, we set the base-, worst-, and best-case scenarios and performed the sensitivity analysis with them (See Table 4). The image for Fig 4 is incorrect and appears as a duplicate of Fig 7. The image for Fig 6 is incorrect and appears as a duplicate of Fig 1. Please see the correct figures here.
