Table 2. Percentage of imported cases assumed to be contributing to transmission over three intervention phases for each sensitivity analysis.

We assume two step changes in the effectiveness of quarantine of overseas arrivals, resulting in three intervention phases: prior to 15 March (self-quarantine of arrivals from selected countries); 15–27 March inclusive (self-quarantine of arrivals from all countries); and 27 March onward (mandatory quarantine of overseas arrivals from all countries).

Imported cases contributing to transmission
Sensitivity analysis Prior to 15 March 15–27 March 27 March–
1 90% 50% 1%
2 80% 50% 1%
3 50% 20% 1%

The results of these three analyses are shown in Figure 2—figure supplements 1, 2 and 3, respectively.
