Predicting effectiveness of countermeasures during the COVID-19 outbreak in South Africa using agent-based simulation

M. Kersting, A. Bossert, et al.

This study investigates the impact of COVID-19 countermeasures in Nelson Mandela Bay Municipality through agent-based epidemic simulations. The findings reveal that premature relaxation of measures risks intense infection surges, threatening healthcare capacity. The research emphasizes maintaining strict measures to effectively contain the virus, demonstrating crucial insights by Moritz Kersting, Andreas Bossert, Leif Sörensen, Benjamin Wacker, and Jan Chr.
