Abstract

This project focuses on where transmission of SARS-CoV-2 occurs and what the implications are for control of the epidemic. The project explores how the pandemic has evolved over the first wave, the extent to which mobility patterns can be used as a proxy for transmission, and the non-pharmaceutical interventions employed by different countries. As more evidence emerges that transmission is occuring in specific high-risk settings, this project aims to characterise these risk factors for transmission.
