Last updated: 7/29/2022

Two directly transmitted viral diseases have the same basic reproduction number (Ro), even though their dynamics are different. Which of the following differences between the two diseases could lead to the same basic reproduction number? One disease has a higher transmission rate and a longer infectious period than the other. One disease has a lower transmission rate and a longer infectious period than the other. One disease has a lower transmission rate and a shorter infectious period than the other. For one disease, the infectious period is long; for the other, no one recovers.
