Results from OddPub: We did not detect open data. We also did not detect open code. Researchers are encouraged to share open data when possible (see Nature blog).
Results from LimitationRecognizer: We detected the following sentences addressing limitations in the study:There are several limitations to this study. First, the model is not age-structured. Second, the assumption that the latent period equals the incubation period may result in an overestimation of the latent period. This is …

Results from LimitationRecognizer: We detected the following sentences addressing limitations in the study:There are several limitations to this study. First, the model is not age-structured. Second, the assumption that the latent period equals the incubation period may result in an overestimation of the latent period. This is because the beginning of the true infectious period may occur before the onset of symptoms; however, this is difficult to measure and is not generally reported in the studies that report values for the incubation period. Third, a single mortality rate has been modeled for the hospitalized infected and non-hospitalized infected classes. Fourth, many of the studies that generated parameter values evaluated populations treated at clinics or admitted at hospitals. However, a significant proportion of illness and death may occur outside of hospitals and clinics (see Cohen et al. 2017). Much work remains to be done to elucidate the etiology of ILI.
