Results from LimitationRecognizer: We detected the following sentences addressing limitations in the study:This stochastic protective measure is a discrete effect similar to ones previously reported in biology (18) Our model has limitations that can be addressed in multiple ways. Another extension would be to add asymptomatic patients to the model, that is, patients that pass the infection without presenting symptoms. Furthermore, the model does neither address at what costs such a desynchronization strategy would come. Given that a complete set of workers is always present, there might be losses of acquired experience for the group absent. Furthermore, these models neither address the impact of length of duty shifts nor the impact of potentially impaired communication as a consequence of decreased interactions between healthcare workers. In summary, our model is a starting point to study how to protect healthcare workers while determining economic impact during a pandemic outbreak.
