We examine estimation of the parameters of Susceptible-Infective-Recovered(SIR) models in the context of least squares. We review the use ofasymptotic statistical theory and sensitivity analysis to obtain measuresof uncertainty for estimates of the model parameters and the basicreproductive number...
