(
A) The fraction of
local transmission that is prevented by quarantining an infected traveller and enforcing strict hygiene measures after release (see 'Appendix 1: Reinforced prevention measures after early release' for details). The scenarios are the same as in
Figure 4 (i.e. exposure occurs with equal probability between day –7 and return at day 0,
, and quarantine starts at time
), but we reduce post-quarantine transmission by
until day 10, after which further transmission is unlikely. (
B) The relative utility of the quarantine and hygiene scenarios in A compared to the standard protocol 10-day quarantine [
Equation 6]. We assume that the fraction of individuals in quarantine that are infected is 10%, and that there are no false-positive test results. Error bars reflect the uncertainty in the generation time distribution.
