    Document: is the (which was not peer-reviewed) The copyright holder for this preprint . https://doi.org/10.1101/2020.03.30.20048132 doi: medRxiv preprint Figure (8) suggests, not surprisingly, that the effects of r and T are important in terms of the extent to which an optimally timed social distancing can reduce the final epidemic size, with longer T and smaller r yielding greater reductions (up to 35% reductions in final size with the parameter ranges explored). Interestingly, the lower the R 0 the greater the reduction in final size.
