Table 2. Description of Scenarios.
Scenario | Modified model/data | Misspecification type | Description |
A | Symptoms onset dates of the simulated sample | Uncertainty on data | Onset dates precision = 0.5 days rather than 1 hour . For cases developing symptoms between 9AM and 9PM the registered time is 9 AM. For other cases the registered time is 9 PM. |
B | Estimation | Parameter value of the within-host dynamics model | Median delay between germination and symptoms = 5 days rather than 2 days |
C | Simulation | Within-host dynamics model | Incubation period for low doses given by [9] Instantaneous exposure |
D | Simulation | Spore diffusion model | Spore concentration given by HPAC model [17] Instantaneous exposure |
E | Simulation | Population movements | Occasional movements added to daily commuting data |
