Improving Policy Making with Informed Covid-19 Case Prediction
Description
Covid-19 has necessitated many changes in the way life in the United States of America is lived. These include things such as new operational hours for retail and other service locations, mandatory and encouraged social distancing protocols on a state and federal level, and major changes to the way educational services are delivered in K-12 and higher education in both public and private contexts. The goal of this project is to produce a mathematical model with the express purpose of directly aiding pandemic response policy decision making by comparing predicted impacts of various logistical decisions and social distancing guidelines.
