Empirical data sets—Sizes and basic temporal statistics.

N, M and L are the number of individuals, edges in the accumulated network (pairs with at least one contact) and contacts, respectively. λ is the per-contact transmission probability used in the disease-spreading simulations. T is the total sampling time. B is the burstiness index of the entire set of interevent times between pairs of at least two contacts. The values for the Gallery data are averaged over all 69 days. The values in parentheses show the standard errors of the number in the order of its last decimal. For details of the definitions of parameters, see the Methods section.
