Solution

I can’t write a correct Codeforces-style editorial for this yet because the actual problem statement for 103076I - Covid Country isn’t included.

Right now there’s no description of:

what the grid/graph/operations are,

what “Covid Country” is modeling,

what input format looks like,

or what needs to be computed.

Without that, any “solution” would be pure guesswork, and that would very likely be wrong.

If you paste the full statement (or even just the input/output + constraints + samples), I’ll produce the complete editorial in the exact format you specified, including:

problem re-derivation,

brute force → optimization transition,

correct algorithm with invariants,

full Python solution,

and edge case analysis.

Send it over and I’ll take it from there.
