Pandemic Lorenz curves measuring inequality in distribution of the pandemic severity. The black line represents the line of equality where each SA2 contributes equally to the cumulative incidence. A curve closer to the line of equality (i.e., Lorenz Curve A, shown in red) indicates that the contributions of SA2 residential areas towards the aggregate cumulative incidence in response to a specific intervention policy A are more equally distributed than the contributions of these areas under policy B which are traced by the curve shaped further away from the line of equality (i.e., Lorenz Curve B, shown in blue)
