a mention of and/or separate article on 'generation interval' would be helpful in this article, as far as I can tell generation interval is an alternative to generation time with the same meaning, in the context of infectious disease its an unobservable inferred construct with not entirely agreed definition, it can be: time between infection events i.e. onset of infection in infector infectee pairs, Euro Surveill. 2020 Apr 30; 25(17): 2000257, or it can be time between onset of infectiousness - or at least thats how generation time is defined in nccid.ca/publications/glossary-terms-infectious-disease-modelling-proposal-consistent-language...I expect that these two definitions always have the same referent in practice, but I'm no scientist let alone infectious disease person — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.232.240.40 ( talk) 10:27, 4 June 2020 (UTC)
