  This is a valuable contribution to the SARS-CoV-2 modelling literature that will be of interest to infectious disease modellers studying the impact of spatially heterogeneous interventions for transmission control. The calibration and analysis of the proposed model is sound and and the results provide convincing evidence that supports the claim that localised interventions could potentially reduce societal impact while maintaining outbreak control. However, the paper provides little insight into what drives the regional diffusion in the Netherlands and how that diffusion could be affected by local lockdowns and a more thorough exploration of the model is warranted. There is also an opportunity to consider behavioural consequences, feasibility, and potential ethical implications of the proposed approach in greater depth.
