    Abstract

    Studies of novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), which is caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), have reported varying estimates of epidemiological parameters, including serial interval distributions—i.e., the time between illness onset in successive cases in a transmission chain—and reproduction numbers. By compiling a line-list database of transmission pairs in mainland China, we show that mean serial intervals of COVID-19 shortened substantially from 7.8 to 2.6 days within a month (9 January to 13 February 2020). This change was driven by enhanced nonpharmaceutical interventions, particularly case isolation. We also show that using real-time estimation of serial intervals allowing for variation over time provides more accurate estimates of reproduction numbers than using conventionally fixed serial interval distributions. These findings could improve our ability to assess transmission dynamics, forecast future incidence, and estimate the impact of control measures.

    • 8月28日，Science期刊发表了题为“Serial interval of SARS-CoV-2 was shortened over time by nonpharmaceutical interventions”的文章。 文章指出，COVID-19是由SARS-CoV-2引起的，对该病的相关研究报道了不同的流行病学参数估计值，包括连续时间间隔（即传播链中连续病例发病日期之间的间隔时间）和传染数。研究人员通过整理中国大陆传播对的数据库，显示COVID-19的连续时间间隔在一个月内（2020年1月9日至2月13日）从7.8天大幅缩短至2.6天。这一变化是由增强的非药物干预措施（特别是病例隔离）所驱动的。研究还表明，与使用传统的固定连续时间间隔分布相比，使用允许随时间变化的连续时间间隔实时估计，可以更准确地估计传染数。这些发现可以提高评估传播动态、预测未来发病率和估计控制措施影响的能力。 原文链接：https://science.sciencemag.org/content/369/6507/1106

We use simple epidemiological models to explore estimates for the magnitude and timing of future Covid-19 cases given different protective efficacy and duration of the adaptive immune response to SARS-CoV-2, as well as its interaction with vaccines and nonpharmaceutical interventions. We find that variations in the immune response to primary SARS-CoV-2 infections and a potential vaccine can lead to dramatically different immune landscapes and burdens of critically severe cases, ranging from sustained epidemics to near elimination. Our findings illustrate likely complexities in future Covid-19 dynamics, and highlight the importance of immunological characterization beyond the measurement of active infections for adequately projecting the immune landscape generated by SARS-CoV-2 infections.
