Capacity limitations are indispensable measures of social distancing in fighting COVID-19 and other pandemics. The paper at hand analyzes these restrictions from the viewpoint of fairness, understood as the possibility of equal access to the scarce resource. To this end, it employs the so-called El Farol Bar problem in conjunction with an adaptive learning approach. Particular emphasis is given to the distribution of information. Our results show that information is, indeed, central to the situation. Policy recommendations are derived.
能力限制是抗击 COVID-19 和其他大流行病中社会隔离的不可或缺措施。本文从公平的角度，即获得稀缺资源的平等机会的可能性，分析了这些限制。为此，它采用了所谓的 El Farol 酒吧问题和自适应学习方法。特别强调了信息的分布。我们的研究结果表明，信息确实是这种情况的核心。并提出了政策建议。
