Британские математики о карантине

We study the impact of major interventions across 11 European countries for the period from the start of COVID-19 until the 4^th of May 2020 when lockdowns started to be lifted. Our model calculates backwards from observed deaths to estimate transmission that occurred several weeks prior, allowing for the time lag between infection and death....
..Our model relies on fixed estimates of some epidemiological parameters such as the infection fatality rate,..
We estimate that, for all the countries we consider, current interventions have been sufficient to drive the reproduction number Rt below 1 (probability Rt< 1.0 is 99.9%) and achieve epidemic control. We estimate that, across all 11 countries, between 12 and 15 million individuals have been infected with SARS-CoV-2 up to 4^th May, representing between 3.2% and 4.0% of the population. Our results show that major non-pharmaceutical interventions and lockdown in particular have had a large effect on reducing transmission. Continued intervention should be considered to keep transmission of SARS-CoV-2 under control.

Вот не знал, что математика тоже касается этой пандемии

моделируют, рассчитывают, а как же.
