How effective was Newfoundland & Labrador’s travel ban to prevent the spread of COVID-19? An agent-based analysis

2021-02-08

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> To prevent the spread of COVID-19 in Newfoundland & Labrador (NL), NL implemented a wide travel ban in May 2020. We estimate the effectiveness of this travel ban using a customized agent-based simulation (ABS). <h4>Methods</h4> We built an individual-level ABS to simulate the movements and behaviors of every member of the NL population, including arriving and departing travellers. The model con...
