Virus outbreak in a model city: How important is social distancing?

The video explores a simulation of virus spread in a model society using marbles. It examines scenarios with no measures, testing and quarantining, and social distancing. The results show that without measures, infections grow exponentially, but testing and quarantining reduce the peak infection rate. Adding social distancing further decreases infections. The video concludes that social distancing is crucial in managing virus spread, especially considering healthcare capacity limitations.
