The estimated effective reproduction number and estimated epidemic curve of foot-and-mouth disease in the focus town. a Effective reproduction number (R t ) along the time axis. The dots represent the maximum likelihood estimates, and the horizontal line is the threshold value, R t = 1. The vertical lines at Days 40 and 46 represent the implementation of control measures (i.e., declaration of a state of emergency and vaccination, respectively). Comparison between the observed (black bars) and predicted (gray bars) number of new IPs for bovine (b) and swine (c)
