One input variable into this garbage code is R0.

In Wuhan in the first few weeks, when saying anything was wrong at all was a Racist Conspiracy Theory™, the calculated R was above 8.

In South Korea, we were looking at an R of about 6 in Daegu, and something below 4 in the rest of the country.

In the US, the R has been declining. Six weeks ago, the median was 1.1, today it's 0.9.

Any virus-modeling software that did not offer the option to input different values for R0 would have been worthless.
