From: Transmission dynamics and control of Ebola virus disease (EVD): a review
Incubation period and generation time of Ebola virus disease (EVD). a) The probability density function of the incubation period, that is, the time from infection to illness onset, fitted to a lognormal distribution is shown. The mean and the standard deviation are 12.7 and 4.3 days, respectively [54]. b) The generation time distribution, as collected from contact tracing data during the Ebola outbreak in Uganda, 2000, is fitted to a Weibull distribution. The mean and the standard deviation are 12.0 and 5.2 days, respectively.
