    Snippet: These parametrized functions are particularly useful in interpreting the effects of public health interventions. For instance, the transmission rate, Ï„(t), is particularly affected by a reduced circulation achieved through a general isolation or quarantine measure, while the fraction f(t) of asymptomatic infectious that become reported, thus isolated, cases can be drastically increased by a massive testing measure with focused isolation.

    Document: These parametrized functions are particularly useful in interpreting the effects of public health interventions. For instance, the transmission rate, Ï„(t), is particularly affected by a reduced circulation achieved through a general isolation or quarantine measure, while the fraction f(t) of asymptomatic infectious that become reported, thus isolated, cases can be drastically increased by a massive testing measure with focused isolation. In the above relations, is the attenuation factor for the transmission rate, N is the time in days for application of the public health intervention to change transmission rate, is the argument of the f(t) variation between the limits ( 0 , ). The first time variable function has been previously considered, while the second one has been introduced in the present work, so as to allow the examination of combined measures.
