English term or phrase: serial interval
Definition from PubMed:
The serial interval of an infectious disease represents the duration between symptom onset of a primary case and symptom onset of its secondary cases.

Example sentence(s):
  • Estimates of the clinical-onset serial interval of human influenza infection (time between onset of symptoms in an index case and a secondary case) are used to inform public health policy and to construct mathematical models of influenza transmission. NCBI
  • We estimate a mean serial interval for COVID-19 of 3.96 (95% CI 3.53–4.39) days, with an SD of 4.75 (95% CI 4.46–5.07) days, which is considerably lower than reported mean serial intervals of 8.4 days for severe acute respiratory syndrome (5) to 14.6 days (6) for Middle East respiratory syndrome. CDC
  • The COVID-19 serial interval is also shorter than the serial interval of severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS), indicating that calculations made using the SARS serial interval may introduce bias. ScienceDirect

  • Da bi izmjerili serijski interval znanstvenici promatraju vrijeme potrebno za pojavu simptoma kod dvije osobe zaražene virusom, odnosno kod osobe koja zarazi drugu i kod te druge zaražene osobe. Istraživači su otkrili da je prosječni serijski interval novog koronavirusa u Kini bio približno četiri dana. - Jutarnji.hr
