Estimates of the reproduction number (R) and rate of importation of rabies into the canine population (total and unobserved).

The rate of importation was defined as the estimated number of outbreaks per unit of time over the whole study period. The rate of unobserved importation was defined as the estimated number of unobserved outbreaks per unit of time over the whole study period. A reporting rate of 20% was assumed, and pruning cutoff distances corresponding to the 95% quantiles of the input distance distributions were used (see S1 Text for sensitivity analyses on these assumptions).
