Implication of backward contact tracing in the presence of overdispersed transmission in COVID-19 outbreaks
Introduction: Contact tracing has the potential to control outbreaks without the need for stringent physical distancing policies, e.g. civil lockdowns. Unlike forward contact tracing, backward contact tracing identifies the source of newly detected cases. This approach is particularly valuable when...
