In the 2018–2019 Epuyén outbreak, 34 confirmed cases were linked to one index case, with transmission apparently amplified by symptomatic individuals attending >crowded social events, followed by subsequent close-contact transmissions. Epidemiological analysis estimated >an initial median reproductive number of approximately 2.1 before control measures were implemented, >decreasing after isolation, quarantine and active contact tracing.
2.1? And only after close contact and reducing after isolation. Pfft… pathetic. Let me know when it becomes a real epidemic that actually spreads properly. This isn’t worth worrying about.
Hey OP, is there any particular reason you’re trying to scare yourself? Are you prone to overly dramatic outbursts of panic or is this a new thing? Do you need to speak to someone? Are you okay?
Btw. Sister is an epidemiologolst who has worked for WHO previously. Wife is a public health officer. Neither of them are worried.
No, the last big outbreak was 2.1…

Do you know we have asymptomatic carriers now too?
