Sentence examples for transmission propensity from inspiring English sources

The basic reproductive number is an abstract measure of transmission propensity after introduction of HIV in a previously non-infected population.

In addition, studies among immigrant populations in the United States, South Africa, and Canada have suggested that the transmission propensity of different genotypes and of different sublineages of the Beijing genotype is dependent on the host population (19, 33, 35, 37 – 37 ).

Finally, due to the aggregated nature of influenza exposure data, we are unable to define a precise effect period that might provide insights into whether this effect is driven by increased transmission, increased propensity for invasive disease, or increased colonization, though biological experiments described above strongly suggest that the latter may be important.

Heritable transmission of propensity to MSH2 methylation in a family with HNPCC has been reported [ 95].
