Figure

Estimates of transmission potential for severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 in Iran, 2020. A) Growth rate, r; B) scaling of the growth rate parameter, p; C) mean basic reproduction number, R0; and D) fit of the generalized growth model (method 1) to the Iran data, assuming Poisson error structure as of March 1, 2020. Dashed lines indicate 95% CIs.
