Title: Optimal timing for social distancing during an epidemic

    Snippet: Optimal t 0 for peak reduction Figure (5) again indicates that R 0 is the main factor determining the optimal time to initiate social distancing if the goal is to reduce the epidemic peak. Once more, as R 0 increases, the sooner social distancing should start (see Figure (6) ). Longer T and smaller r yield greater peak reductions (up to 60% reductions), (see Figure (10) in Appendix 3). Finally, the higher the R 0 the greater the reduction in peak.....
    Document: Optimal t 0 for peak reduction Figure (5) again indicates that R 0 is the main factor determining the optimal time to initiate social distancing if the goal is to reduce the epidemic peak. Once more, as R 0 increases, the sooner social distancing should start (see Figure (6) ). Longer T and smaller r yield greater peak reductions (up to 60% reductions), (see Figure (10) in Appendix 3). Finally, the higher the R 0 the greater the reduction in peak prevalence.
