Title: COVID-19 scenario modelling for the mitigation of capacity-dependent deaths in intensive care: computer simulation study Document date: 2020_4_6
ID: e79k4q76_33
Snippet: Should any additional government-led isolation strategies be effective in further flattening the epidemic curve for cases requiring intensive care, then a substantial reduction in peak deaths from 53 to 33 would be expected (i.e. Scenario 6 c.f. Scenario 2). However, without increases to capacity this simply spreads the deaths over a longer period of time, rather than reducing the total by a significant amount (2296 c.f. 2521). To achieve a signi.....
Document: Should any additional government-led isolation strategies be effective in further flattening the epidemic curve for cases requiring intensive care, then a substantial reduction in peak deaths from 53 to 33 would be expected (i.e. Scenario 6 c.f. Scenario 2). However, without increases to capacity this simply spreads the deaths over a longer period of time, rather than reducing the total by a significant amount (2296 c.f. 2521). To achieve a significant reduction in total deaths then any "flattening" of demand must be accompanied by increases in capacity. If this can be accomplished, alongside the afore-mentioned reductions in length of stay, then such synergy becomes evident, cutting total capacity-dependent deaths to just over 1000, reducing the peak per day to 22, and shortening the continuous time operating at full capacity.
