Figure 3

Effect of different containment strategies. The phase diagram is obtained considering as control parameters \(\beta\), that represents mobility restrictions, and \(\gamma\), the efficiency in removing infected agents. The color scale represents the fraction of the initial susceptible population that becomes infected, ranging between 0 (epidemic suppression, violet region) and 1 (fully-blown epidemic, yellow region). Containment is achieved as \(\beta\) increases (corresponding to increasing mobility restrictions) even with low removal rate, or increasing \(\gamma\) (effective removal of infected agents), even with limited mobility restrictions.
