Commentary on Ferguson, et al., "Impact of Non-pharmaceutical Interventions (NPIs) to Reduce COVID-19 Mortality and Healthcare Demand".
Stephen Eubank,I. Eckstrand,Bryan Lewis,Srinivasan Venkatramanan,Madhav V. Marathe,Christopher L. Barrett +5 more
TL;DR: A coarse taxonomy of models is discussed and the context and significance of the Imperial College and other models in contributing to the analysis of COVID-19 are explored.
Journal ArticleDOI

Elizabeth Halloran,Neil M. Ferguson,Stephen Eubank,Ira M. Longini,Ira M. Longini,Derek A. T. Cummings,Bryan Lewis,Shufu Xu,Christophe Fraser,Anil Vullikanti,Timothy C. Germann,Diane Wagener,Richard Beckman,Kai Kadau,Christopher L. Barrett,Catherine A. Macken,Donald S. Burke,Philip C. Cooley +17 more
TL;DR: The simulations suggest that at the expected transmissibility of a pandemic strain, timely implementation of a combination of targeted household antiviral prophylaxis, and social distancing measures could substantially lower the illness attack rate before a highly efficacious vaccine could become available.
Journal ArticleDOI
What factors might have led to the emergence of ebola in West Africa
Kathleen A. Alexander,Claire E. Sanderson,Madav Marathe,Bryan Lewis,Caitlin Rivers,Jeffrey Shaman,John M. Drake,Eric T. Lofgren,Virginia M. Dato,Marisa C. Eisenberg,Stephen Eubank +10 more
TL;DR: To prevent future outbreaks, coordinated, multiscale, early warning systems should be developed that make full use of these integrated assessments, partner with local communities in high-risk areas, and provide clearly defined response recommendations specific to the needs of each community.
Journal ArticleDOI
Modeling the Impact of Interventions on an Epidemic of Ebola in Sierra Leone and Liberia
TL;DR: Modeling results suggest that increased contact tracing, improved infection control, or a combination of the two can have a substantial impact on the number of Ebola cases, but these interventions are not sufficient to halt the progress of the epidemic.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Generation and analysis of large synthetic social contact networks
Christopher L. Barrett,Richard Beckman,Maleq Khan,V. S. Anil Kumar,Madhav V. Marathe,Paula Stretz,Tridib Dutta,Bryan Lewis +7 more
TL;DR: This work develops a synthetic population for the United States modeling every individual in the population including household structure, demographics and a 24-hour activity sequence and describes “first principles” based methods for developing synthetic urban and national scale social contact networks.
