On December 31, 2019, the World Health Organization was notified about the emergence of a novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) in Wuhan, China. In the first weeks of January 2020, the viral disease (COVID-19) caused by SARS-CoV-2 spread across China and emerged in several other countries. Coinciding media reports about an alarming number of accumulating cases further indicated that the spread of the virus would likely become a global concern in a matter of days. On March 11, the WHO declared a global pandemic.
The CEID Coronavirus Working Group was formed on January 24, 2020, three days after the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) activated its emergency response system in reponse to the outbreak of the novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 in Wuhan, China. The group includes about 30 scientists with data science expertise in data manipulation and interpretation, visualization, GIS, machine learning, computational statistics, and dynamical modeling. The group’s COVID-19 Portal was launched February 10, 2020.
The COVID-19 Portal provides data-driven, information rich situation awareness about the rapidly changing conditions of the current outbreak of COVID-19. Activities include:
