Table 2. Estimates for intervention parameters.

Parameter descriptions, fitted values and ranges used for parameter sensitivity analysis. Comparable values can be found in references indicated in the last column.

Parameter	Description	Fitted value (Ranges)	Comments
$\tilde{\beta }$	Transmission rate in the community after intervention (per week)	0.505 (0.425–0.532)	Corresponds to 5% decrease in the transmission in the community after interventions, cf. [11]
t β	Time to achieve $(\beta +\tilde{\beta })/2$	12.5 days
$\tilde{\theta }$	Transmission rate in hospitals after intervention (per week)	0.095 (0.033–0.328)	Corresponds to 71% decrease in the transmission in hospitals after interventions, cf. [11, 19]
t θ	Time to achieve $(\theta +\tilde{\theta })/2$	11.1 days
$\tilde{\phi }$	Transmission rate at funerals after intervention (per week)	1.115 (0.210–2.104)	Corresponds to 47% decrease in the transmission at funerals after interventions, cf. [11]
t φ	Time to achieve $(\phi +\tilde{\phi })/2$	10.3 days
$1/\tilde{\eta }$	Mean time from symptoms onset to hospitalization	4.1 (2–5) days	cf. [11]
t η	Time to achieve $(\eta +\tilde{\eta })/2$	27.1 days
$1/\tilde{b}$	Mean time from death to burial	4.9 (1–5.4) days	cf. [6]
t b	Time to achieve $(b+\tilde{b})/2$	21.2 days
