Overview
Primary Prevention
According to a modeling study [1]: "Implementing the combined intervention of
- quarantining infected individuals and their family members,
- workplace distancing, and
- school closure once community transmission has been detected
...could substantially reduce the number of SARS-CoV-2 infections."
