“…Among many others, we refer to [2], that studies numerically optimal containment policies in the context of a Susceptible-Infected-Recovered (SIR) model (cf. [16]); [14] which also allows for seasonal effects; [23], which estimates the transmission rate in various countries for a SIR model with given and fixed transmission rate; [3], which combines a careful numerical study with an elegant theoretical study of optimal lockdown policies in the SEAIRD (susceptible (S), exposed (E), asymptomatic (A), infected (I), recovered (R), deceased (D)) model; [5], where a detailed numerical analysis is developed for a SIR model of the Covid-19 pandemic in which herd immunity, behavior-dependent transmission rates, remote workers, and indirect externalities of lockdown are explicitly considered; [1], where -in the context of a multi-group SIR model -it is investigated the effect of lockdown policies which are targeted to different social groups (especially, the "young", the "middle-aged" and the "old"); [10], in which a multi-risk SIR model with heterogeneous citizens is calibrated on the Covid-19 pandemic in order to study the impact on incomes and mortality of age-specific confinements and Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) tests; [9], which calibrates and tests a SEIRD model (susceptible (S), exposed (E), infected (I), recovered (R), deceased (D)) of the spread of Covid-19 in an heterogeneous economy where different age and sectors are related to distinct risks.…”
