Italy with current interventions: Based on Ro of 1.2, CFR of 2%, and 5.4% of total active cases will be in critical condition.


Italy without current interventions: Ro = 2.4 instead of Ro 1.2



Spain with current interventions: Based on Ro of 1.2, CFR of 2%, and 5.4% of total active cases will be in critical condition.

(Note: Spain seems to have more patients that are going into severe or critical condition, and so it looks like the death rate might be higher)

I went crazy while I was in quarantine so I bought a textbook on epidemiology and learned the different models based on differential equations that they use. . . I also learned that there are a TON of assumptions that go into making these charts and the data is not all there. They also make a ton of assumptions as to how to measure and decrease infectivity rate for each country.

But the biggest take away I got was experts epidemiologists may not know the right answer, but they sure as heck can spot the wrong answer.
