COVID-19 modelling papers and press conference

Doherty Institute researchers have released their work on COVID-19 modelling to the general public. These models have been utilised by the Commonwealth Government in the public health response to COVID-19. It’s important to note the modelling is based on preparedness scenarios to inform planning, they are not predictions. It informs the actions taken to slow the spread and prepare the health system.
