Statistic Model parameter Maximum likelihood estimate Confidence interval
Force of community-based infection per community case k 1.95 × 10−7 [1.49 × 10−7, 2.39 × 10−7]
Force of direct infection per HCW day (green ward) g 2.53 × 10−4 [0, 1.10 × 10−3]
Force of direct infection per HCW day (red ward, pre-FFP3) r 1 7.97 × 10−3 [3.65 × 10−3, 1.40 × 10−2]
Force of direct infection per ward day (red ward, post-FFP3) r 2 6.84 × 10−10 [0, 3.38 × 10−3]
Relative direct risk on red wards post- versus pre-FFP3 r2/r1 0.00 [0, 0.478]
