In this work, we introduce a Bayesian Analysis for the Block &
Basu bivariate exponential distribution using Markov Chain Monte
Carlo (MCMC) methods and considering lifetimes in presence of
covariates and censored data. Posterior summaries of interest are
obtained using the popular WinBUGS software. An numerical illustration
is introduced considering a medical data set related to the
recurrence times of infection for kidney patients.
