Mixed Effects Linear Regression Models for the Estimated Rt Before Versus After Relaxation of Social Distancing Measures

Coefficienta 95% Confidence Interval P value
Constant term (day prior to relaxation) .761 .728, .793 <.001
Prerelaxation period (days relative to relaxation) −.012 −.013, −.012 <.001
Postrelaxation period intercept .032 .010, .054 .005
Time × postrelaxation period (days relative to relaxation) .019 .018, .020 <.001
Postrelaxation period (days relative to relaxation)b .007 .006, .007 <.001

aEstimates adjusted for day of the week and population density.

bThe postrelaxation term represents the linear combination of the prerelaxation period and the time × postrelaxation period coefficient.
