In a media statement, group of scientists working on the model stated that a mathematical model can only predict future with some certainty so long as virus dynamics and its transmissibility don’t change substantially over time. They added that in the case of COVID-19, the nature of the virus has been changing very rapidly.<br />”&nbsp;<br />”In such a context, they said any prediction for COVID-19 must be continually readjusted.
