^aIt is derived by assuming that the basic reproduction number, ${\mathcal{\text{R}}}_0=\frac{{\beta }_0}{\gamma }·\frac{\sigma }{\sigma +\mu }=2.8$ (referring to Imai et al., 2020, Riou and Althaus, 2020, J.T. Wu et al., 2020, Zhao et al., 2020a, Zhao et al., 2020b) when α = 0, by using the next generation matrix approach (van den Driessche and Watmough, 2002). The time unit is in year if not mentioned.
