Distributions of the final number of cases. A) Distribution of the final number of cases for the various contact pattern representations, averaged over all seeds, with the parameters 1/σ = 0.5 days, 1/ν = 1 day and β = 2.8 10^-3 s^-1. B) Boxplots giving the distribution of the final number of cases for the various contact patterns representations, averaged over all seeds (“all”) and as a function of the class of the seed, for 1/σ = 0.5 days, 1/ν = 1 day and β = 2.8 10^-3 s^-1. Only epidemics with a final attack rate larger than 10% are considered. The bottom and top of the rectangular boxes correspond to the 25th and 75th quantiles of the distribution, the horizontal lines to the median, and the whiskers indicate the 5th and 95th percentiles.
