  Evaluation Summary:

  The authors present an analysis of SARS-CoV-2 variant of concern movements into and within the Netherlands. The primary finding is that flight bans (in conjunction with other NPIs) were grossly insufficient at stopping the invasion of new variants into The Netherlands over a one-year period. Although consistent with similar analyses of other regions early in the pandemic, this manuscript provides additional evidence of the inadequacy of flight bans at stopping the spread of variants that are already widespread globally, especially (but not only) when importations continue via ground travel. The reviewers have questioned the rigor of the statistical models and the presentation of the main result, including analyses that were included but do not appear to contribute to the main argument.
