Projecting contact matrices in 177 geographical regions: An update and comparison with empirical data for the COVID-19 era.

Mathematical models have played a key role in understanding the spread of directly-transmissible infectious diseases such as Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19), as well as the effectiveness of public health responses. As the risk of contracting directly-transmitted infections depends on who interac...
