Abstract/Contents: | "Most applications of disease progress models assume maximum levels of disease (K max) equal 100% or 1.0, but this is not always the case. Underestimation of the rate (r) of disease increase was calculated by comparing r with actual K max values (0.25-1.0) to that with an assumed K max=1.0 for 30-day epidemics with a range of initial disease (y - 0.01 to 0.0001) and standardized rates (r*). With a decrease in actual maximum levels of disease increasing underestimation or r occurred with the logistic, Gompertz, and monomolecular models, respectively, assuming K max=1.0. Increasing underestimation of r with increased r* increased the underestimation of r, occurred with the monomolecular, logistic and Gompertz models, respectively. When epidemic duration was 45 days, effects of decreased K max and increased r* increased the underestimation of r, especially for Gompertz and logistic models. The results highlight a potential problem in assuming K max=1.0 when the actual K max is less than 1.0." |
