Answer:

The term 'flattening the curve' comes from a chart depicting two curves that demonstrates the outcome of social distancing. The key message of the chart is that it is essential to delay the spread of the virus from person to person, even if it is an impossible task to halt the spread.

Social distancing is a term applied to specific non-pharmaceutical infection control actions taken by public health officials to stop or slow down the spread of a highly contagious disease.

The objective of social distancing is to reduce the probability of contact between persons carrying an infection, and others who are not infected, to minimize disease transmission, morbidity, and ultimately, mortality.

Experts estimate that anywhere from 20% to 60% of the world's adult population could catch coronavirus disease or COVID-19. This means 40 million cases, at a conservative estimate, in the US alone! Considering that there is no vaccine or specific drugs for this disease, this might make you feel hopeless. However, this is not what healthcare professionals are saying. They want everyone to cooperate in 'flattening the curve.'

The curve simply stands for the number of people who catch the virus and develop COVID-19, the disease. The first curve is a sharp, steeply rising one, while the second is a smooth low curve. The first shoots up to peak well above a dotted line representing healthcare system capacity, or the number of cases the healthcare system is equipped to undertake. The second peaks below this line.

The message is clear, and experts now recognize the innovative graphic as the key to containing the mortality rate of this pandemic. It also answers a lot of questions as to the formulation of plans intended to contain the virus. The chart is deservedly acclaimed as providing a concise and understandable summary of the importance of personal precautions to be taken by individuals, apart from government measures.
