Inference of person-to-person transmission of COVID-19 reveals hidden super-spreading events during the early outbreak phase
Although SARS-CoV-2 has spread rapidly, the contribution of super-spreading events to transmission is unclear. Here, the authors show that the number of secondary infections arising from an individual infection in the early phase of the outbreak was highly skewed, indicating that super-spreading eve...
