Understanding Infection Progression under Strong Control Measures through Universal COVID‐19 Growth Signatures (Global Challenges 5/2021)

In article 2000101 Magdalena Djordjevic, Marko Djordjevic and co‐workers report widespread dynamical signatures in COVID‐19 confirmed case counts. They show that these signatures provide important quantitative information for understanding the disease spread and for constraining or inferring key infection progression parameters. This can lead to a more fundamental understanding of infection progression under strong control measures applicable to COVID‐19 and other infectious diseases.
