In this simulation modeling study of COVID-19 transmission dynamics, identification of
silent infections among children was shown to be an important strategy as vaccination
campaigns continue to immunize adults. We found that early interruption of transmission
chains is critical to outbreak control. Contact tracing at the time of symptom onset or
testing, as opposed to at the time of testing results, could have a large impact on
