Understanding R0 (R-Naught) and the contagiousness of coronavirus
If you've been reading about COVID-19 you've probably run into R0 a few times. It's pronounced R-naught, and it's a mathematical indicator of how contagious something is. We wanted to get a better understanding of R0 and why it's important, so we asked Dr. Annette Reboli, Dean of Cooper Medical School of Rowan University in Camden, New Jersey to join KYW In Depth to break down what R0 is, what it means, and where this coronavirus ranks among contagious diseases.
