Table 1 Table of variables. Summary of the variables used in the experiments. ^†The cumulative probability distribution is reported as {\({\mathrm{p}}_{1},{\mathrm{p}}_{2}\dots ,{\mathrm{p}}_{\mathrm{n}}\)}, where \({\mathrm{p}}_{\mathrm{i}}\) is the probability that \(\mathrm{i}\) is the last day of latency or of infectiousness, and a measles case will change state within \(\mathrm{n}\) days
