Extending the duration of SD to a continuous of 5 weeks also delayed the peak prevalence without showing obvious impact on I and F compartments. Surprisingly, doubling the hospital bed capacity had little impact of the peak prevalence of the I and F compartments ( Figure 3B ), probably due to the overwhelming number of patients compared to the bed capacity.
