From: The impact of local and national restrictions in response to COVID-19 on social contacts in England: a longitudinal natural experiment

Fig. 2

a The distribution of the number of setting-specific contacts before and after each restriction came into place. b Change in contacts for each restriction. c The proportion of changes comparing before and after the restrictions started. Graph A shows the distribution of setting-specific contacts before and after each restriction came into place. Colours represent whether the change in contacts increased (brown), decreased (yellow), or stayed the same (orange). Values greater than 10 are not shown on the graph. Graph B shows the distributions of the difference in contacts, with zero values removed to ease comparison between increases and decreases. Differences of magnitude greater than 10 are not shown. Graph C shows the proportions of changes in contacts due to each restriction. For most participants, the number of contacts remained unchanged (yellow) after restrictions. Additional file 1 Figure S1A and S1B show graphs 2A and 2B without the restrictions on the axes and with zero values included
