How Effective are NPIs?

The effectiveness of NPIs can vary based on several factors, including the nature of the disease, the timeliness and extent of implementation, and public compliance. Studies have shown that when implemented early and rigorously, NPIs can substantially reduce the transmission of diseases such as influenza and COVID-19. However, the effectiveness of each measure can differ; for instance, social distancing has been found to be particularly potent in reducing transmission rates.
