Definition from
Fox Baltimore:
(n.) The phrases “bending the curve” and “flattening the curve” are both being used to describe how prevention and cointanment measures are meant to help stop the spread of the pandemic. Bending the curve refers to taking drastic measures so that the number of cases, represented by an exponential curve (the graph of an equation of the form y = ba^x, where a and b are positive constant), changes direction —moving downwards.

Bending the Pandemic Curve: Improving Decision-Making With Clinical Research (LWW Journals)
“If a Wuhan-like outbreak were to take place in a U.S. city, even with strong social distancing and contact tracing protocols as strict as the Wuhan lockdown, hospitalization and ICU needs from COVID-19 patients alone may exceed current capacity,” they wrote. “We don’t want to go that route,” Rivers told STAT. “So it’s the top priority right now that we bend the curve.” (STAT)
As I told Dan, the problem is that if 2-3% of the infected individuals need ICU care but no health system on earth is designed to deal with that kind of demand. Hence, if you want the same fatality rate as Taiwan or Germany, it’s all about preventing your ICUs from being swamped. That’s all about bending the curve. (Regenexx)

ulja e kurbës
Definition from
own experience or research:
"Ulja e kurbës" është një frazë për të përshkruar sesi masat parandaluese dhe këshilluese janë për qëllim të ndihmojnë në ndalimin e përhapjes së pandemisë. Fraza "Ulja e kurbues" i referohet marrjes së masave drastike në mënyrë që numri i rasteve, i përfaqësuar nga një kurbë eksponenciale ndryshon drejtimin — duke lëvizur poshtë.
