This serial interval is resampled from the first 1000 patients in the
test_bpm dataset for whom both infector and infectee has symptoms. These
patients are generated with a symptom delay of mean 6 days and SD 2 from
infection (discrete under-dispersed gamma) and an infectivity profile with
mean 5 days and SD 2 as defined in test_ip dataset. This serial interval
if relevant to the estimation of $R_t$ from symptomatic case counts but
includes negative times, and cannot be used with EpiEstim.
