    Abstract

    To identify the temporal change in the possible risk of superspreading events, we estimated the overdispersion parameter in 2 different periods of the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic. We determined that the possible risk of superspreading events was reduced 90% during the second epidemic period in South Korea.

    Keywords: coronavirus; infectiousness; overdispersion; superspreading; transmission.
