Wiley Online Library:
The probability that infection occurs among susceptible persons within a reasonable incubation period following known contact with an infectious person or an infectious source. It is a key epidemiologic parameter in infectious diseases that are transmitted by contact.
Example sentences:
The secondary attack rate (SAR), defined as the probability that an infection occurs among susceptible people within a specific group (ie, household or close contacts), can provide an indication of how social interactions relate to transmission risk. (The Lancet)
The secondary attack rate for SARS-CoV-2 — the virus causing coronavirus disease (COVID-19) — is under 1% among close contacts of U.S. patients, according to findings in MMWR. (NEJM Journal Watch)
The estimated secondary attack rate was 685 per 100 000 among household contacts, 404 per 100 000 among day-care nursery contacts and 77 per 100 000 among pre-elementary school contacts. (Science Direct)

Existen clases especiales de medidas de incidencia: (a) La tasa de ataque se utiliza para situaciones en que la población entera de interés ha sido expuesta a un factor en un periodo corto, como ocurre con las epidemias y (b) la tasa de ataque secundario que se usa para medir el desarrollo de la enfermedad entre contactos de casos conocidos, en su cálculo se excluye, tanto del numerador como del denominador, los casos primarios.
