From: Transmission of drug-resistant bacteria in a hospital-community model stratified by patient risk
(a) \(\bar{\beta }^j\) value evaluated for the fixed model parameters as described in Section “Patient stratification and parameter estimation” (with omitted values: 2.58, −21.48, −6.45), biologically non-feasible values marked in red; (b) average yearly number of admissions, for each hospital-community pair (\(j = 1, \dots , 163\)). There are no red markers in (b), as for all pairs \(\psi _2^j \ge \psi _1^j.\) Pairs are sorted in ascending order based on \(\mathscr {R}_0^j\) value. Vertical dashed line indicates the first pair for which \(\mathscr {R}_0^j > 1.\) The size of markers is proportional to the average pair size \(PS_j\).
