Global versus focused isolation during the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic-A cost-effectiveness analysis	2020-04-01		.txt	text/plain	3798	232	56	Objective: To compare the cost-effectiveness of global isolation of the whole population to focused isolation of individuals at high risk of being exposed, augmented by thorough PCR testing. We used R0=2.4 (range 1.4-3.9) (13), we assumed that the recovery time is 26 days, thus the transmission rate from infected (carrier) patients to susceptible population (β) was 0.09 (range 0.031 to 0.186)(13). In strategy 1, r1_HR_c represents the proportion of the population under relaxed isolation due to a high risk of contact with SARS-CoV-2 patients (0.7%). We next tested our model with a strategy of strict isolation of all infected individuals, relaxed isolation for two weeks of the high-risk group and a global quarantine of the susceptible population (strategy 1). https://doi.org/10.1101/2020.03.30.20047860 doi: medRxiv preprint each high-risk individual during the 14 days of isolation, and therefore ~10,000-15,000 tests will be needed daily for a country the size of Israel.	./cache/cord-276058-1mpp7sbt.txt	./txt/cord-276058-1mpp7sbt.txt
