Definition from
Kaiser Family Foundation:
An epidemiologic metric used to describe the contagiousness or transmissibility of infectious agents, which is usually estimated with complex mathematical models developed using various sets of assumptions. It is an estimate of the average number of new cases of a disease that each case generates, at a given point in time. R0 estimates for the virus that causes COVID-19 are around 2 to 3, which is slightly higher than that for seasonal influenza (R0 ~1.2-1.3), but far lower than more contagious diseases such as measles (R0 ~12 - 18).
Example sentences:
The R0 is not an intrinsic feature of the virus. It can be lowered through containment, mitigation and ultimately “herd immunity,” as people who have recovered become less susceptible to infections or serious illnesses. For the epidemic to begin to end, the reproduction rate has to drop below 1. (The Washington Post)
This chart shows two curves with two very different virus reproduction rates. In the steepest curve, the virus reproduces quickly in a short period of time. In this scenario, emergency rooms, intensive care units and other parts of the health care system are overwhelmed. In an overwhelmed system, mortality rates can be high and those infected may not get the treatment they need. (World Economic Forum)
When the team modeled a scenario in which contacts were notified the instant a person tested positive, it was possible to push the reproductive rate of the virus below that threshold, the team reported in a preprint this week. (Science)

Базове репродукційне число (R0)
Definition from
Wikipedia:
Базове репродукційне число (R0) — середня кількість осіб, що безпосередньо інфікуються хворим упродовж усього заразного періоду хвороби за умови потрапляння хворого до повністю незараженої популяції.
Example sentences:
Наприклад, необхідно оцінити рівень смертності та базове репродукційне число (R0) – кількість людей, яким в середньому передає вірус інфікована особа. (Тиждень)
Закінчилась епідемія, коли базове репродукційне число інфекції зменшились до 0,4 (тобто одна людина заражала в середньому 0,4 людини). Цього виявилося достатньо для зупинки спалаху. (Радіо Свобода)
