A Model Describing COVID-19 Community Transmission Taking into Account Asymptomatic Carriers and Risk Mitigation

2020-03-20

Abstract excerpt

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a novel human respiratory disease caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus. Asymptomatic carriers of the COVID-19 virus display no clinical symptoms but are known to be contagious.
