What Are the Types of Attacks?
In epidemiology, attacks can be classified into various types based on their nature and spread:
Primary Attack
: The initial set of cases in an outbreak.
Secondary Attack
: Cases that occur due to transmission from primary cases.
Point Source Attack
: Cases arising from a single source of exposure.
Propagated Source Attack
: Cases resulting from person-to-person transmission over time.
