soooo I& #39;m looking at the SAGE paper which suggested the "circuit breaker" lockdown and they& #39;ve modelled which interventions are likely to drive down transmission, and it seems to suggest closing schools and offices would have a bigger impact on than pubs and household mixing bans
Here& #39;s their summaries for each; note how the schools and offices numbers are much bigger than households and pubs.
There& #39;s also a very, VERY strong case to be made for closing universities - driving R down, and a strong model (which is what "high confidence" means)
