TL;DR: A compartmental model for assessing the community-wide impact of mask use by the general, asymptomatic public is developed, suggesting face masks are potentially of high value in curtailing community transmission and the burden of the COVID-19 pandemic.
956 citations
TL;DR: The previously proposed dynamics transmission model is refit to the data available until January 29th, 2020 and the effective daily reproduction ratio is re-estimated that better quantifies the evolution of the interventions.
619 citations
TL;DR: The findings suggest that the containment strategies implemented in China are successfully reducing transmission and that the epidemic growth has slowed in recent days.
578 citations
TL;DR: This study demonstrates that nonidentifiability in model calibrations using the confirmed-case data is the main reason for such wide variations in model predictions on the COVID-19 epidemics in Wuhan and indicates that predictions using more complex models may not be more reliable compared to using a simpler model.
524 citations
TL;DR: This primer article focuses on the basic reproduction number, ℛ0, for infectious diseases, and other reproduction numbers related to ℚ0 that are useful in guiding control strategies and theoretical ideas are applied to models that are formulated.
