Table 3.

Estimated percentage reduction in transmission by intervention since intensified strategy began

Transmission reduction by intervention Transmission Transmission
2013–2015 2013–2019
Total reduction (%) 100.0 (99.7–100.0) 100.0 (100.0–100.0)
Percentage of reduction attributed to AS and baseline PS 19.9 (12.8–28.5) 41.3 (27.4–55.7)
Percentage of reduction attributed to enhanced PS 5.6 (1.2–18.3) 23.6 (8.3–43.8)
Percentage of reduction attributed to VC 74.0 (57.8–84.4) 34.7 (13.9–58.2)

Attributions to each strategy component are based on counterfactual strategy simulations. Medians are given with 95% credible intervals in brackets
