COVID-19 modelling data - Thursday 16 April 2020

This modelling data on COVID-19 in Ireland was presented at the Department of Health press briefing on Thursday 16 April 2020 by Professor Philip Nolan, Chair of NPHET Epidemiological Modelling Advisory Group.

Professor Nolan said:

“Our model today is showing four reproductive numbers, illustrating the different stages of the disease in Ireland over the past 6 weeks.

“We now estimate our R0 to be between 0.7 and 1.0, which means current restrictions are successfully suppressing the disease.”
