  1. Percentage of symptomatic diagnosed individuals and susceptibility (i.e., probability of infection upon contact, \(\beta _{{i}}\)). The reported values are obtained from the mean of the fitting results of 1000 bootstrap realizations. The fraction of symptomatic diagnosed individuals is calculated from \(\frac{\delta _{I,i}}{\delta _{I,i} + \gamma _{I}}\), where \(\delta _{I,i}\) and \(\gamma _{I}\) denote the diagnosis and recovery rate, respectively.
