Abstract

This paper attempts to answer the optimal question, that of decelerating the spread of COVID-19 without damaging the economy. Proceeding through standard thinking of dynamic optimization theory à la Fujita, we believe that workers need to come into contact with other workers less and less, Government should regulate workers so that their contact rate is lower ( by reducing the number of employees per office and by encouraging teleworking) and finally, Government should stop confining while insisting on maintaining barrier gestures to cushion the loss of GDP and preserve the economy.
