Snippet: These levels are chosen specifically because limited distancing results in an R eff just above 1 and enhanced distancing results in an R eff of just below 1, which allows for control of the epidemic progression. It is helpful to consider caps in terms of natural variation in activity since it should be possible for people to reduce their interaction levels to the median level, since half the population does this anyway. It is much harder to asses.....
Document: These levels are chosen specifically because limited distancing results in an R eff just above 1 and enhanced distancing results in an R eff of just below 1, which allows for control of the epidemic progression. It is helpful to consider caps in terms of natural variation in activity since it should be possible for people to reduce their interaction levels to the median level, since half the population does this anyway. It is much harder to assess whether everyone reducing their interaction level by a factor of over 2 is really practical.
