Results of dichotomous variable sensitivity analysis: listing of the most important parameters in determining whether or not less than 100 people are infected by the epidemic (as determined by logistic regression and the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test).

odds 3.12
(2.34, 4.17)
p = 0.57
maxd = 0.05
infectious period (τ2) p = 0.04
odds 1.29
(1.01, 1.64)
p = 0.20
