Table 2 Parameter estimates for a quantitative risk assessment of (HPAI-H5N1) in backyard poultry (B2). For all the parameter estimates, we used the best-fit probability distributions

From: A quantitative risk assessment to evaluate the efficacy of mitigation strategies to reduce highly pathogenic avian influenza virus, subtype H5N1 (HPAI H5N1) in the Menoufia governorate, Egypt
