Effects of the significant main factors and 2-level interactions on the total number of infected for the low transmissibility scenario

Factors Effects (on total # infected)
Main Factors Change in total # infected when factor
changes from a low to a high level
DD +0.57%
CIT −1.44%
CCC +8.04%
CCS +1.90%
SCD −3.75%
CCDW +1.28%
WCD −0.41%
Interactions Effect of change in Factor 1 when Factor 2 is in
Factor 1 Factor 2 Low Level High Level
CIT CCC −0.31% −2.56%
CIT SCD −1.96% −0.91%
CIT CCDW −1.05% −1.82%

Legend: DD- deployment delay; CIT - case isolation threshold; CCC - number of cases to close a class in a school; CCS - number of classes to close a school; SCD - school closure duration; CCDW - number of cases to close a department in a workplace; WCD - workplace closure duration.
