What effect might border screening have on preventing importation of COVID-19 compared with other infections? A modelling study

2020-07-11

Abstract excerpt

The effectiveness of screening travellers during times of international disease outbreak is contentious, especially as the reduction in the risk of disease importation can be very small. Border screening typically consists of travellers being thermally scanned for signs of fever and/or completing a survey declaring any possible symptoms prior to admission to their destination country; while more thorough testing t...
