Fig. 1: Dataset.

A Cases, deaths and implementation dates of nonpharmaceutical interventions in an example region (Nürnberg, Germany). Coloured lines indicate the dates that each intervention was active. Colours represent different interventions. B The total number of days that each intervention was used in our dataset, aggregated across n = 114 regions but separated by country. The dashed vertical line indicates the total number of region days in our dataset. C Additional timelines showing cases, deaths, and interventions in six regions. Comparing two regions within England (Lincolnshire and Greater Manchester S.W.) and within Switzerland (Zürich and Géneve) reveals significant subnational variation, both in the interventions used and in the evolution of the epidemic.
