Abstract

Este trabajo presenta un modelo capaz de describir y proyectar la evolución del COVID-19 a nivel local. Para ello, diseñamos, programamos, y calibramos un modelo epidemiológico «SEIR plus» que además de los cuatro estados principales del modelo SEIR clásico, describe la trayectoria de enfermos severos y críticos, estados esenciales para la planificación del sistema de salud. Además, sumamos particularidades locales, como ser la curva etaria de la población y medidas de mitigación que impacten en el factor reproductivo. Asimismo, nuestro modelo es estocástico debido a la incorporación de incertidumbre en variables claves asociadas al virus y de difícil proyección para el hacedor de políticas. El modelo muestra un buen ajuste adentro y afuera de la muestra en su aplicación a Ciudad de Buenos Aires y Tucumán, Argentina. Finalmente, mostramos su aplicación para Tucumán, proyectando un escenario epidemiológico factible, y las demandas del sistema sanitario.
