The paper was considered at SAGE 16 on 16 March 2020.
This slidepack contains an extract of plots and estimates on potential mitigation and suppression strategies from the paper Impact of NPIs to reduce COVID-19 mortality and healthcare demand, and should be considered in that context. It should not be read as a standalone product.
The paper should be viewed in context: the paper was the best assessment of the evidence at the time of writing. The picture is developing rapidly and, as new evidence or data emerges, SAGE updates its advice accordingly. Therefore, some of the information in this paper may have been superseded and the author’s opinion or conclusion may since have developed.
These documents are released as pre-print publications that have provided the government with rapid evidence during an emergency. These documents have not been peer-reviewed and there is no restriction on authors submitting and publishing this evidence in peer-reviewed journals.
