The potential impact of intervention strategies on COVID-19 transmission in Malawi: A mathematical modelling study

2020-10-07

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> COVID-19 mitigation strategies have been challenging to implement in resource-limited settings such as Malawi due to the potential for widespread disruption to social and economic well-being. Here we estimate the clinical severity of COVID-19 in Malawi, quantifying the potential impact of intervention strategies and increases in health system capacity. <h4>Methods</h4> The infection fatality ra...
