Which of the following is not a proxy measure of the incubation period of a disease?
Communicable Period
Latent Period
Serial Interval
Generation Time
Communicable period is defined as the time during which an infectious agent may be transferred from an infected person or animal to another person or animal. As a rule, infectious diseases are not communicable during the incubation period, with a few exceptions. Latent period is equivalent to incubation period in non-infectious diseases. Serial interval and generation time are roughly equal to the incubation period. Ref: Park's Textbook Of Preventive And Social Medicine, By K. Park, 19th Edition, Page 93, 94.
