New mathematical model predicts disease spread patterns

New mathematical model predicts disease spread patterns Early on in the COVID-19 pandemic, health officials seized on contact tracing as the most effective way to anticipate the virus s migration from the initial, densely populated hot spots and try to curb its spread. Months later, infections were nonetheless recorded in similar patterns in nearly every region of the country, both urban and rural.
