An intervention model for the COVID-19 epidemic in South
AfricaProf Alex van den Heever
20 May 2020
“Model” features and objectives
• Follows the SEIR approaches
• Top-down
• Matches interventions to disease trajectory
• Purpose: examine optimal strategic intervention scenarios – and is not used for forecasting – focus is on informing decisions
• Estimates produced till 31 December 2020
• Calibrates “model” using intervention success in other countries and assumes we should get similar results in South Africa (which we haven’t)

How do we get to scenarios for 2020?
Individual interventions with associated reductions in R
Response packages involving combinations of interventions with an aggregate R
2020 scenarios involving the application of different packages to specific periods
