Title: Optimal timing for social distancing during an epidemic
  • Document date: 2020_4_1
    • ID: cm91jxde_15
    Snippet: We also use numerical simulations to find the optimal t 0 for, first, delaying the peak of the epidemic curve, and second, for reducing the peak (i.e., the maximum prevalence of cases), as a function of R 0 , T and r. To quantify the effect of these optimal social distancing timings, the delay in the peak and the reduction in the prevalence peak corresponding to optimal timing (as compared to a scenario with no social distancing) were also comput.....
