Epidemic curve[edit]

An illustration of the effect of spreading out infections over along period of time on healthcare capacity managing patient volumes, known as flattening the curve[104]

Main priority of nations is to move to a slower doubling time of new cases, to ensure less crowded hospitals and therefore a lower case fatality rate. Governments of different countries have a different approach to flatten the epidemic curve. Beside travel bans and isolation of complete communities, citzens are also often requested to stay at home and keep social distance. Research indicates that measures must be applied rigorously and immediately in order to be effective. Also the community's commitment in supporting the restrictions and in following the advices from the Ministry of Health is playing an important role in the succes of flattening the epidemic curve and limit the spread of the virus. [105] Mass-testing like in South Korea was succesfull. The South Korean national testing capacity reached a staggering 15,000 tests per day. The Ministry of Interior in South Korea also rolled out a smartphone app that can track the quarantined and collect data on symptoms, so scientists are able to see more epidemiological data.[106]

Comparing cumulative numbers of confirmed cases of selected countries, including the Czech Republic[107], show the different curves of the epidemic in different countries.[108] These numbers don't tell anything about the number of the current infected people, just only about the number of people who got tested positive.
