Abstract

Infectious disease outbreaks often exhibit superspreader dynamics with a small fraction of individuals responsible for a large proportion of transmission. Heterogeneity impacts outbreak risk and control efficacy Standard models typically neglect differential transmission, potentially introducing bias. Multi-type models incorporate population heterogeneity with transmissibility typically linked to symptomatic status
