Figure 2

A posteriori probability estimates of spillover hazard for influenza A(H7N9) virus infection in China, by region. Black dots show total number of reported influenza A(H7N9) virus cases for which symptom onset occurred on a given date. Red shading shows a posteriori probability estimate of spillover hazard (i.e., the expected number of cases resulting from animal-to-human transmission on each day). A serial interval of 7 days was assumed. A) Zhejiang, 2013–2014; B) Jiangsu, 2013–2014; C) Shanghai
