The effectiveness of public health interventions against COVID-19: Lessons from the Singapore experience. by John P Ansah, David Bruce Matchar, Sean Lam Shao Wei, Jenny G Low, Ahmad Reza Pourghaderi, Fahad Javaid Siddiqui, Tessa Lui Shi Min, Aloysius Chia Wei-Yan, Marcus Eng Hock Ong

“…Importantly, our simulation model results suggest that there about 65% more COVID-19 infection cases in Singapore that have not been captured in the official reported numbers which could be uncovered via a serological study. Compared to the containment intervention, a mitigation intervention would have resulted in early peak infection, and increase both the cumulative confirmed and actual infection cases and deaths.…”
