control measures, differing only in HCW-community mixing precautions (ρ=1 in A and<br />

ρ=0.1 in B). Daily incidence is shown, broken down by route <strong>of</strong> transmission within or<br />

between the hospital and community pools. Inset, pie-charts show average contributions<br />

<strong>of</strong> the different routes <strong>of</strong> infection for 500 stochastic simulations <strong>of</strong> each epidemic<br />

(standard errors for these proportions were estimated by jackknifing the simulation<br />

results, but in all cases were less than one percentage point). Note that c-to-h<br />

transmission includes hospitalized community-members infecting the HCWs caring for<br />

them. R0=3 in both cases, and other parameters are from Scenario 1 <strong>of</strong> Figure 3: ε=0.1,<br />

κ=1, η=0.5. q=0, hc=0.3, hh=0.9, yielding R=1.60 in (A) ({Rcc,Rch,Rhc,Rhh}=(0.55, 1.05,<br />

0.23, 1.37)) and R=1.39 in (B) ({Rcc,Rch,Rhc,Rhh}= (0.57, 1.04, 0.02, 1.36)). The control<br />

policy is implemented 14 days into the outbreak.<br />
