Phylodynamics reveals the role of human travel and contact tracing in controlling the first wave of COVID-19 in four island nations

2020-08-06

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> <h4>Background</h4> New Zealand, Australia, Iceland, and Taiwan all saw success at controlling the first wave of the COVID-19 pandemic. As islands, they make excellent case studies for exploring the effects of international travel and human movement on the spread of COVID-19. <h4>Methods</h4> We employed a range of robust phylodynamic methods and genome subsampling strategies to infer the epidemi...
