Results from LimitationRecognizer: We detected the following sentences addressing limitations in the study:We acknowledge that there are limitations in our analysis. First, we mainly focused on the comparison of NPIs for the first and second waves, as only a small number of countries had experienced the third wave by 25 March 2021 and the most recent wave might involve NPIs together with vaccination. To evaluate the pure effects of NPIs independent of vaccination, we excluded the dates with vaccination in the first and second waves. …

Results from LimitationRecognizer: We detected the following sentences addressing limitations in the study:We acknowledge that there are limitations in our analysis. First, we mainly focused on the comparison of NPIs for the first and second waves, as only a small number of countries had experienced the third wave by 25 March 2021 and the most recent wave might involve NPIs together with vaccination. To evaluate the pure effects of NPIs independent of vaccination, we excluded the dates with vaccination in the first and second waves. Meanwhile, the preliminary results of NPI effects in the third wave for a small group of countries are also provided in SI. Second, it should be noted that our study might have underestimated the effectiveness of the vaccination, as we only examined the initial, short-term effect of the first-dose vaccines as of 25 March, but vaccine and infection-induced immunity among populations could last longer, with accumulated long-term effects for reducing transmission. Additionally, some countries/populations have had the second-dose vaccine rollout, which was not estimated in our study, though the proportion of people vaccinated with two doses might be still low. Overall, the disclosure of epidemic, publicized responses and the COVID-19 vaccination data allows us to estimate and compare the cross-wave effects of public health measures at both global and regional scales. Our work provides a quantitative basis and approach to explore historic spatial-temporal variation in the effectiveness of individual NPIs, integrating vaccinations. The continued pandemic bur...
