Title
Spreading Dynamics of COVID-19 and its Mitigation
Abstract
How can we infer the spreading of neural activity in the brain? And how can these approaches be used to infer the spread of SARS-CoV-2? We recapitulate the basic principles of spreading dynamics, its role in shaping network dynamics, and its ability to describe COVID-19. We show how to design COVID-19 mitigation strategies, and derive a metastable state, which could greatly facilitate mitigation.
