"Social Distancing

There is one very simple thing that we can do and that works: social distancing"

"How Can Politicians Contribute to Social Distancing?"

"Mitigation

Mitigation requires heavy social distancing. People need to stop hanging out to drop the...
...transmission rate (R), from the R=~2–3 that the virus follows without measures, to below 1, so that it eventually dies out.

These measures require closing companies, shops, mass transit, schools, enforcing lockdowns… The worse your situation, the worse the social distancing
. The earlier you impose heavy measures, the less time you need to keep them, the easier it is to identify brewing cases, and the fewer people get infected.
