    Snippet: Supplementary Figure 1 : Larger cities are expected to require more aggressive strategies to control epidemics than smaller cities. Higher values of R result in a a greater required vaccination rate, p R = 1 − 1/R, in order to stop the outbreak. This rate applies to social distancing as well as vaccination and herd immunity. The translation of growth rates into reproductive numbers was obtained using an infectious period of 1/γ = 4.5 days. The.....
    Document: Supplementary Figure 1 : Larger cities are expected to require more aggressive strategies to control epidemics than smaller cities. Higher values of R result in a a greater required vaccination rate, p R = 1 − 1/R, in order to stop the outbreak. This rate applies to social distancing as well as vaccination and herd immunity. The translation of growth rates into reproductive numbers was obtained using an infectious period of 1/γ = 4.5 days. These estimated values of R are high in some cases (e.g. New York City) compared to reports in other situations and may in part be the result of the acceleration of testing in larger cities and specific places.
