We use change-point detection, count time series methods and compartmental models for short and long term projections, respectively. Testing approaches in the Republic of Cyprus included: a) targeted testing of suspect cases and their contacts; of repatriates at the airport and during their 14-day quarantine; of teachers and students when schools re-opened in mid-May; of employees in essential services that continued their operation throughout the first pandemic wave (e.g., customer services, public domain); and of health-care workers in public hospitals, and b) population screenings following random sampling in the general population of most districts and in two municipalities with increased disease burden. ./cache/cord-128991-mb91j2zs.txt ./txt/cord-128991-mb91j2zs.txt
