COVID-19 control across urban-rural gradients
Wells, K., Lurgi, M., Collins, B., Lucini, B., Kao, R. R., Lloyd, A. L., … Gravenor, M. B. (2020, September 9). (Vol. 9). Vol. 9.
TL;DR:
The model shows that isolation of symptomatic cases, or regional lockdowns in response to local outbreaks, have limited efficacy unless the overall transmission rate is kept persistently low, and emphasises the importance of test-and-tracing strategies and maintaining low transmission rates for efficiently controlling COVID19 spread, both at landscape scale and in urban areas.
