Transmission Dynamics of COVID-19 in Wuhan Revisited

Abstract

The local outbreak of COVID-19 in Wuhan was successfully curbed under the strategy of Joint Prevention and Control Mechanism (JPCM). Important experience and lessons can be drawn from the study of the full transmission dynamics of COVID-19 in Wuhan. This talk will reconstruct the transmission dynamics of COVID-19 in Wuhan in early 2020 across four stages defined by important events and interventions. The effectiveness of JPCM and the effect of different control measures are investigated. Finally, we share our thinking about the modeling, prevention, and control of COVID-19.
