Supporting spreadsheet from the Scientific Pandemic Influenza Group on Modelling, Operational sub-group (SPI-M-O) containing weekly metrics from the reasonable worst-case planning scenario. It was considered at SAGE 49 on 30 July 2020.

The paper is the assessment of the evidence at the time of writing. As new evidence or data emerges, SAGE updates its advice accordingly.

This paper must be read in the context of the reasonable worst-case planning scenario released under SAGE 49. It should be read alongside the papers Reasonable worst-case planning scenario, 30 July 2020, SPI-M-O: Update on planning and reasonable worst-case scenarios and SPI-M-O expert narratives for potential autumn and winter events statements.

This paper should not be interpreted as a forecast of what is most likely to happen, but rather a narrative on possible scenarios to inform planning.
