Title: COVID-19 attack rate increases with city size Document date: 2020_3_27
ID: aeminwf0_8
Snippet: This is a large effect. Based on data of mobile phone social networks (8) , people living in a city of 500,000 have, on average, 11 people in their mobile phone social network, while people living in a city of 5,000,000 people have approximately 15. This is relevant to disease transmission as the average contact rate is proportional to degree β ∠k(N ) (see Materials and Methods). Therefore, we expect that initial growth rates of COVID-19 case.....
Document: This is a large effect. Based on data of mobile phone social networks (8) , people living in a city of 500,000 have, on average, 11 people in their mobile phone social network, while people living in a city of 5,000,000 people have approximately 15. This is relevant to disease transmission as the average contact rate is proportional to degree β ∠k(N ) (see Materials and Methods). Therefore, we expect that initial growth rates of COVID-19 cases to be higher in larger cities (see Materials and Methods) . This is what is found empirically (see Figure 1A) .
