The estimate of R0 is the value which +minimizes the sum of squares between observed case counts and cases counts +expected under the model. + +This method is based on an approximation of the SIR model, which is most +valid at the beginning of an epidemic. The method assumes that the mean of +the serial distribution (sometimes called the serial interval) is known. The +final estimate can be quite sensitive to this value, so sensitivity testing +is strongly recommended.
