| Smaller jurisdictions Interest1 #701026 CANMOD will develop mathematical models that: (i) are appropriate for provincial/territorial planning in smaller jurisdictions; (ii) explain how optimal public health response may be different in regions with a high proportion in imported cases; and (iii) explore how the different epidemic dynamics experienced in AC-T are influenced by the social dynamics of small and remote communities. |
- Atlantic Canada and the territories (AC-T) have experienced different COVID-19 epidemic dynamics than the rest of Canada, with periods of no community spread and a higher portion of days with very few cases. In AC-T importations account for the majority of COVID-19 cases and outbreaks in AC-T have been extinguished when public health measures have been enacted.
