Parametric and non-parametric estimates of the incubation period

Cumulative percentage of cases developing symptoms by a given day under the estimates for the log-normal distribution (continuous line) are shown, compared with the non-parametric estimates calculated by the method of Turnbull62 (rectangles). Rectangular regions represent estimates with equivalent support (ie, not statistically distinguishable). RSV=respiratory syncytial virus. SARS=severe acute respiratory syndrome.
