12. Different AIDS incubation periods and their impacts on reconstructing human immunodeficiency virus epidemics and projecting AIDS incidence.
The objective of this study was to investigate heterogeneity in incubation distributions in different cohorts and to assess the sensitivity of back-calculated infection rates to different assumptions about incubation times from human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection to AIDS diagnosis. Incubation distributions were estimated by using data from three dif
