An epidemiological model to manage post-lockdown scenarios of #covid19. In Nature Communications, analysis of relationship between measures for identifying and isolating infected, and spread of virus by Professors Lorenzo Mari, Stefano Miccoli, Renato Casagrandi and Marino Gatto from the Politecnico di Milano; Enrico Bertuzzo and Damiano Pasetto from Ca' Foscari University in Venice; Andrea Rinaldo from the University of Padua and the EPFL in Lausanne.
In Italy, too, there is an increasingly urgent need to restart partially blocked socio-economic activities to control the spread of COVID-19. For this to be possible, reopening must be accompanied by effective monitoring and control methods that allow selective relaxing of containment measures without increasing the epidemic risk.
