Is “no test is better than a bad test”? Impact of diagnostic uncertainty in mass testing on the spread of COVID-19
Fig 8
Total active infections each day over the year after relaxing lock-down, under different testing intensities (columns) and various epidemiologic conditions.
The per-day testing capacity is varied across the five columns of graphs. Rate, the percentage of the initial quarantined population being released each week is varied among rows. The prevalence of infections in the tested population is varied among different colours. To facilitate comparison within each column of graphs, the gray curves show the results observed for other Rates and Prevalences with the same testing intensity. Model parameters are shown in Table 5.
