Figure 1.

Fig. 1

(A) Number of confirmed cases per day during the third wave, starting with the first reported case on 5 July. Numbers are plotted separately for Imported cases (blue); Clustered local cases, defined as cases from clusters of 10 or more linked to the same infection source (orange); Sporadic local cases, without an epi-link or from clusters of fewer than 10 cases (dark red); and Total local cases (green). Four epidemic phases are defined: Initial (5 July - 15 July), Growing (15 July - 22 July), Plateau (22 July - 30 July) and Declining (30 July - 15 August). (B) Daily confirmed local cases plotted separately for individuals with an epi-link to an earlier case (blue) and those without an epi-link (dark red). Arrows above the graphs indicate the dates of introduction of NPIs (for abbreviations see main text). Targeted group testing (TT) is shown at 17 July, because that is the launch date for the major component of this scheme (see text).
