      Evaluation Summary:

      This paper will be of interest to infectious disease epidemiologists and modellers working on situational assessment, and public health researchers focused on COVID19 response. Through an informative case study on the Singaporean COVID19 epidemic, the paper provides estimates of case ascertainment under different levels of border restrictions and public health measures, as well as estimates of the effectiveness of contact tracing in reducing transmission. The combination of data from multiple sources with mathematical modeling provides a powerful tool to assess effectiveness of interventions. Some of the key claims of the manuscript - while plausible - are not directly supported by the analyses, and the methods and modelling assumptions require more detailed exposition.
