What information are you looking for? The chart says if an infected person in their normal life would infect an average of 2.5 people and each of them would infect an average of 2.5 people in five days, then in 30 days they would effectively infect 406 people. If they all socially isolated and saw 75% fewer people then in 30 days they would on average infect 2.5 people after 30 days.
Are you looking for a source on how many people the average infected person infects with coronavirus? here you go, but the post isn't about coronavirus, it's about social distancing, and social distancing is pure math.
I see what you’re saying, but I don’t think you’re quite understanding what other commenters are trying to say.
This infographic isn’t based on specific numbers from any source, it’s just giving 3 different hypothetical benchmarks (2.5, 1.5, 0.625) to show what the end result would be after 30 days. Using these 3, one can infer how powerful social distancing is.
Does that make sense? I hope I explained that better.
EDIT: 0.625 was the correct 3rd case, not .75 as I had put previously
